Synopsis

Takeaway is a new musical about being young, British and hopelessly confused and is set in London’s East End. It tells the story of Eddie Woo who is at a bit of a crossroads to say the least. . He is a youthful dreamer who has failed his A-Levels (again), is wannabe ladies’ man juggling two girlfriends, who works day and night in his father’s Chinese takeaway which he manages (badly) . In fact, he’s never happier than when he wanders into daydreams of escaping the everyday and being like his idol, Tom Jones.
