Picture a band of bus drivers from Southern Britain, who, in pure amateur style - but in all seriousness – put together a theatre adaptation of Ridley Scott’s Alien. With no money or experience, but with a motivation fueled by naivety and passion, director, makeshift actors, technicians and decorators rely only on their DIY creativity to plunge head first into this wacky and precarious adventure, which will take them all the way to a miraculous London grand premiere. Heads up for a bright little comedy gem high on good humour!
