About the Event
Cheshire Cats A Comedy by Gail Young
Grown women, aching feet and heaving bosoms! Follow the Cheshire Cats team as they speedwalk their way to fundraising success in the London Moonwalk - the flagship event for the ‘Walk the Walk’ charity. The team train hard to walk 13 miles across the capital in record time, for charity, in their decorated bras and posh new trainers, but the 6th member of their team doesn't seem to meet the physical criteria!
CHESHIRE CATS is a cross between a girl’s night out and a real mission to support a cause close to many hearts, with plenty of laughs and a few tears along the way.
This play has a similar resonance to Calendar Girls. The rights of the play raise funds for cancer awareness and research.
