| Publisher Description: Remember when typewriters ruled the world? It's the age of Margaret Thatcher, Britain's first woman prime minister. But the best chance most women have to get close to power - or even close to a job - is to join a Government-sponsored training course for shorthand typists. So prim Susan and sexy Frankie and depressive Sandra and busybody Pat get together to conquer the keyboard. Even if they have to suffer clapped-out keys, broken backspaces, sticky spacebars and shocking shifts. And these women also speak their minds - about men, politics, men, work, men, children, men and each other So look out Because they can only take so much from crippled carriage returns before they rise in rebellion. From such injustice and tyranny, the best jokes are often made. Because they cut deepest. And the result is hilarious and heart-breaking in this fast-moving play by Michael Yates. |
