Written by BAFTA Award winning playwright John Godber

Join Stick, Frank and Happy Larry (two men and a woman!) as they embark on another coach journey down the Rhine Valley. these long suffering drivers have seen it all and done it all; so as they lead towards the Channel Tunnel with thirty old age pensioners in Paris, search for lost teeth in Koblenz and witness love affairs in Boppard…and after a four-day ‘Umpah’ party they make the long journey back. Funny, sad and cinematic you’ll be amazed as Stick, Frank and Happy Larry play many of the pensioners in a total evocation of a bus trip.

Touching, funny and provoking comedy written by one of the nation’s leading comedy playwrights who has written over 50 plays!
