Going Out Out
Going Out Out is a show filled with music, courage and love about a man who finds a way to cope with grief by joining the Manchester drag scene.
Ian’s gone out less since he became a widower. Actually, he hasn’t gone out at all - a local charity gets his shopping and he only leaves the house to water the garden.
But when Raz drops Ian’s groceries round one day and finds him wearing his late wife’s dress, because it helps him feel closer to her and because he likes to wear something loose fitting on hot days, an unlikely friendship starts that changes everything.
Soon, Ian finds himself back in the working men’s club run by his estranged daughter, Lauren, preparing to give the performance of his life…
With soulful sounds from Dusty Springfield and Ella Fitzgerald and infectious pop anthems by George Michael and Janelle Monae, the show’s musical soundtrack has something to move everyone.
