Devilled Eggs

A new play from Black Liver. 

Commissioned by Black Grand Theatre.

Part of Blackpool Grand’s Storytelling Festival and Show Town Comedy Festival. 

Welcome to the Dakota Guest House! The most glamorous B&B this side of Blackpool!

The Dakota is the true spirit of Variety; comedy, music and mystery are resident guests here and every room has its tale to tell.

Let your hosts, Roman and Prudence flip through their guest book and regale you with showbiz stories and anecdotes. From their heyday as the B&B to the stars to their present day haven of secrets, Ro and Pru will introduce you to the characters that reside in The Dakota. Expect songs, sketches and verse as each guest room opens. 

From acclaimed theatre makers Black Liver, Devilled Eggs is their latest two-hander play about a guest house over the span of a one night stay (breakfast included).

Like the eggs The Dakota serves at breakfast, this show is fresh, cheeky and devilishly spicy!
