The show tells the tale of sweet teenager Toffee and her rebellious outcast boyfriend, Jonny.The pair meet at Enrico Fermi High School and fall in love, but fascist headmistress, Miss Strict, intervenes; convincing Toffee to ditch the no-good Jonny. Driven half-mad by the betrayal, Jonny drives to a nearby nuclear power plant and flings himself into a cooling tower.

Tortured by guilt and loneliness Toffee mourns her lost love until one day, Jonny returns, risen from the dead as a teenage nuclear zombie. Jonny's return to school sparks outrage, attracts the attention of sleazy newspaper reporter, and the threat of missing out on the prom!

Small venue upstairs from a pub ~ not bad ~ individual chair seating in three or so rows ~ not far from Clapham North tube station. Show should be good ~ hopefully.

I have to say - although the original New York show was a critical and commercial disaster - I saw the production three times (I had friends in it and it was heavily papered) and must confess that I thoroughly enjoyed it ... in a very 'Hairspray' sort of way ... The bubble burst right outside the door ... but what an enjoyable ride ... You just needs not take it too seriously.

Broadway Billy - If you are going to promote the show that you are working on that is completely fine but please do not post pretending to be an ordinary member of the public. (and yes I have the proof that you are part of the production company)

Its not only dishonest, but it really gets peoples backs up on the forum!!!

And on that note I would like to say the following are one and the same poster

Poster Broadway Billy, Guest Hannah, Guest & Guest Again!

This is my street, I smile at the faces I've known all my life, They regard me with pride.
