Lipservice's Doris Set For Salford

Award-winning comedy duo LipService – (Maggie Fox and Sue Ryding) - seem unstoppable as their newest show, the musical comedy, Desperate to be Doris, featuring some of Doris Day’s greatest hits returns to the region, again, time in Salford. Songs include: "Secret Love", "Que Sera, Sera", "Steam Heat", "The Deadwood Stage", "Enjoy Yourself."

The plot follows Dean, who works as a buyer for a mail order nightwear firm called the Pyjama Game. At home he is a legend in his living room and sings like Doris Day. Will Dean dare to share his Calamity Jane with an unsuspecting world?  When his local operatic society Out of my Range, decides to stage the hit musical, Dean is suddenly thrown in the limelight.

Desperate to be Doris is produced in association with York Theatre Royal and with Lottery funds from The Arts Council.

The show premiered at the York Theatre Royal from 26 June – 4 July 2009. It then played in Manchester at the Library Theatre twice and has also appeared at the Oldham Coliseumm and the Theatre By The Lake. 

Desperate To Be Doris returns to the region at the Lowry from 22 - 25 June.
