Liverpool Everyman alumnus Cathy Tyson will return to the city’s stage this autumn in a new comedy at the Playhouse.

She will feature in Monkey Bars, a verbatim show where children’s conversations are re-enacted by adults—playing adults—in adult situations. Chris Goode’s Edinburgh Fringe favourite comes to the Liverpool Playhouse Studio from October 1-5.

The script began when more than 40 eight- to-ten-year-old children talked about their lives.

Tyson began her career in the Everyman Youth Theatre and was last seen at the Everyman in 2007’s The May Queen.

The prodiction is recommended for ages 14+.
