A poignant comedy about a ‘normal’ kiwi family. Opening on Thursday night this week, with previews on Tuesday and Wednesday at the preview price of just $10!

Bouncers gives a contemporary, bawdy, fast-paced and funny look at big city nightlife. With Friday being the traditional big night for bouncers, their season will open on Thursday but the official opening night is on Friday.

Four Men, One Night, Twenty Four Characters, One Job . . . Bouncers

As the mighty guardians of our nightclubs, Bouncers sometimes get a little bored of their job. Their only joy is playing with the hopefuls attempting to get into their bar. Bouncers shows clients and Bouncers alike trying to deceive everyone; especially themselves.

Bouncers is set in a typical Wellington nightclub where the not-so-typical Bouncers depict the clientele’s eclectic, odd, drunken and down-right weird behavior. Performed by four actors, the multiple roles vary from Lager-Lout to Nightclub Tart, Manager to DJ, Drunken Hopeful to Drunken Brawler.

Bouncers is a contemporary, bawdy, fast paced and funny look at the night life of any big city.
