Make Way For Tobin

Synopsis

Based on Stanley Morgan’s multi-million selling character Russ Tobin (which to-date has sold over 10 Million copies Worldwide) the comedy musical Make Way For Tobin is a homage to Britain’s golden era, the 1960’s when the dreams were high and the skirts were even higher. Ever on the look-out for that rung that will help him up the ladder to fame and fortune, Tobin believes his big break has finally arrived when he gets the job of maintenance man at the fabulous apartment block Wisteria Court, residence of the very rich and famous. Alas, Russ quickly discovers the chasm that inevitably separates our fantastic dreams from harsh reality. Wisteria Court, it transpires, is a seething seedbed of eccentric silliness, an asylum of anarchic asininity. One day the world may well Make Way For Tobin - but it sure as heck won’t be today!
