LADS on Love, Lust, Lies and Loneliness

Leek Arts Festival took place in May of this year. 
For further details visit the Festival website at Leek Arts Festival

This year LADS performed on Tuesday the 17th and Wednesday the 18th of May as part of the Leek Arts Festival 2005. The performance was a Lads devised production called "LADS on Love, Lust, Lies and Loneliness". It was an amusing and wry look at human relationships and featured playlets, sketches and readings from writers such as Pinter, Aykbourn, Shakespeare and many others.

The performances, at the Swan Hotel on St Edward's Street, were very successful with appreciative audiences on both evenings.
