It is undoubtedly one of the finest productions to come out of Merseyside in the last ten years, a difficult birth it may have been, a show that found itself with an audience but being put on due to commitments and other factors somehow making the play seem an impossibility and yet a decade on, over 200,000 members of the public later, Brick Up The Mersey Tunnels is a show of insurmountable honest and terrifically funny appeal; so much so that it is only right and proper for it to come back to the Royal Court Theatre and give the jolt of marvellous humour needed after a January of gloom and false starts.

For the fifth time in as many years Brick up the Mersey Tunnels arrived at the Royal Court Theatre to a great fanfare and armed to the teeth with well loved gags and up to date topics that would make any other show seethe with jealousy.

Not for nothing has Brick Up…become a firm favourite with audiences throughout Liverpool and beyond with fans of the hit show coming back time and time again to witness the range of comedic talent that runs through the heart and soul of the show.
