We'll tell you as soon as tickets go on sale:

In a rundown Memphis bar, Marcia – a washed-up Vegas showgirl – works double shifts and reflects on her single doomed shot at happiness, while her customers tell the stories of their own troubled lives. Tales of lust, loss…and murder.

A unique collaboration between the leading lights of crime fiction and country music, an original story by bestselling crime writer Mark Billingham is sound tracked by the powerful and poignant songs of internationally acclaimed Americana duo My Darling Clementine.

‘Country romanticism and hard-boiled crime come together in a story that perfectly emphasizes the drama contained in the music.’ What’s On

‘Part gig, part play, part storytelling (albeit a story influenced by Jim Jarmusch!)’ Crossing Borders
