Description: Eddie is a youthful dreamer and wannabe ladies' man who works day and night in his father's Chinese take-away. He is at a bit of a crossroads to say the least. He has failed his A-Levels (again) while juggling two girlfriends and managing his father's takeaway (badly). He is never happier than when he wanders into daydreams of escaping the everyday and being like his idol Tom Jones. But with two girlfriends, a full-time job, and a whole host of other problems, will he ever achieve his dream? Takeaway is a new musical about being young, British and hopelessly confused.
Notes: "First performed at Theatre Royal Stratford East on Friday 10 June 2011."
