Going Soft

Action Theatre Scotland • Amateur Company

60 minutes•Belly Laugh
Bar-L is Glasgow's hottest attraction – an immersive prison themed bar. With business thriving, co-owners Martin and James are expanding into an adult-only soft play. They've got the vision and, hopefully, the backing of a potential investor. But as the meeting unfolds, tensions rise and the cracks in their partnership begin to show. Can their friendship survive the business world, or will their dream collapse like a poorly built ball pit? Fast-paced and razor sharp, Jack Byrne's solo-writing debut sheds light on toxic masculinity in working class Glasgow with both humour and heart.
