Keith Waterhouse’s Billy Liar is one of the much loved plays, novels, films of all time. The semi- comical story sees William Fisher lost in his own world of made up lies as he struggles to escape his mundane life working in an undertakers in post war Yorkshire.
The three act play, which was adapted by Willis Hall and Keith Waterhouse is now getting a new lease of life as the Port Sunlight Players take on the story from the 10th to the 12th October at The Gladstone Theatre at Port Sunlight.
The Port Sunlight Players is one of the oldest established amateur companies on the Wirral. Their first production was in 1921 and each year they produce two plays, a musical and a pantomime. This latest production is directed by Janet Roxby.
