Taking The Piste
Kirkby can be the town of the future! A symbol of regeneration in the 1970s! You know what Kirkby needs? A ski slope…
Donald Storm is head of Kirkby Council and he's got an eye on creating a new destination for tourists from around the world. And if he can make a few bob in the process, so much the better.
Together with his mate Geoff, a builder who may as well wear a ten-gallon hat, he hatches a plan to use tax-payers money to build a ski slope right next to the M57. Well, I suppose it's handy for skiing into town.
Standing in their way are a trainee journalist from the Liverpool Echo and her burnt out supervisor. Between them, they take on Don, the council and even the Echo itself by setting up a new free press so they can speak their minds.
Kieran Lynn has written a brand new comedy about one of the wildest chapters in Merseyside history. It's all downhill from here!
