"Rottenrow-Ra Musical" Written & Directed by Paul Moore
From here to maternity.
And for every pregnant mother climbing that hill to Rottenrow, it took an eternity!
It's a cold night in May 2001.Big Andy and his sidekick in security, Slim Si are watching over the decrepit wards of the iconic Rottenrow Maternity Hospital, the night before it feels the pain of the wrecking ball and is razed to the ground, with no epidural to numb the pain. The end of an epidural era! On their midnight "tour of duty", our two hapless Security Guards wander through the wards and stumble upon an old box.containing patient files, cod liver oil and a lot of vodka.
And as the vodka kicks in.he reminisces with Slim Si about how him and his siblings were all birthed in the Rooms of Rottenrow.and thousands of others. The Birth of a Nation!
Before long, it's drams and prams, pains and weans, distractions and contractions..as The Wummin on The Wards emerge to give birth to their stories (and their weans) in full thrust Glasgow style. Literally all the belly aching hilarity.and a few hysterectomies too. A show that will have you in stitches!!
From the writer of the smash hit musical comedies "The Provy Wummin" and "Meet Me at Boots Corner" - with the pulsating patter of big toe tapping musical numbers-from Bassey to The Beatles and Boney M.and so many more!!
Not to be missed. Grab a seat and pay a visit with your Lucozade and grapes and reminisce about "Rottenrow"
