THE RUDE MECHANICAL THEATRE COMPANY

Ik’r’us Inc

 

The Rudes are at the Uckfield Festival this summer with their brand new play, Ik 'r' us Inc.

It’s 1955 and this latest play by The Rude Mechanical Theatre Company tells the story of Daedalus H. Gildersleeves, a travelling salesman who has progressed from selling vacuum cleaners to encyclopaedias and finally to selling dreams. Rivalries are exposed, grievances and pain long-since veiled in respectability are revealed, and secret hopes laid bare as Daedalus begins to fly the Dreamville townsfolk up into the clear blue Indiana skies to their dreams. The school swot, Sandra, daughter of the mayor, finally looks up from her book long enough to notice and fall in love with Daedalus' pale faced visionary of a boy, Ikarus.

Hilarious, romantic, tender, searching - and laced with rock'n'roll.
