Preparing for a mystery trip to Scarborough ("she wouldn't book
till Dennis told her where we were going") three Northern coach
drivers pass the time remembering more exciting trips from the
past, such as the last one, down the Rhine Valley to Heidelberg.
Stick hates his passengers and wishes he was doing the Spanish run
instead of Johnny Mac. Larry is a Mario Lanza fan who's been making
trips for as long as anyone can remember and Frank ("don't
ask...it'll only shock you!") is their female counterpart. These
three actors take turns playing an assortment of passengers, from
the dotty old complainers to the retired miners seeking excitement
too late and on too little money. Escape is on everyone's mind but
no one knows quite what they're escaping from and how to go about
it. As Sissy says, it is "better going somewhere when you're
seventy-nine than going nowhere". A touching, often hilarious,
bitter-sweet play, full of John Godber's usual clever, perceptive
view of "men of the world".
