Introduction , from the programme
Zoo Zoo Widdershins Zoo is an immensely funny and lively play about a group of young people living together in a flat in the Midlands in the sixties. They are all out of work, living off national assistance, occasional shop-lifting and telephone boxes!
The play was first-prize winner at the National Student Drama Festival in 1969 where it was presented by students from Leicester University. A proessional production subsequently opened at the Nottingham Playhouse and transferred to the Royal Lyceum Theatre as part of the Edinburgh Festival prior to opening in the West End.

This is a posh poob. Them talk different oover there"
