Out The Bag Productions, based in Wallasey on the Wirral, Merseyside was formed in November 2005 by local actress and playwright Paula Rowlands for just £140!! The idea was to raise funds to produce an original play Paula had written called “Twisted Angels” a comedy-drama about 5 prostitutes working on the streets of Liverpool. So, we set about creating our own comedy revue nights called “Funny Bunny.” These one night shows were performed locally (even on a make-shift stage in a pub!) The money from these shows was then put towards “Twisted Angels.” We found a lot more like-minded people who soon joined our group. A few months later in November 2006 (just a year after the company was first formed) we finally produced “Twisted Angels” at The Little Theatre, Birkenhead. The reviews we received were excellent (Robin Blythe, critic with NODA said “All the performances were quite exceptional and deserves to be seen by a wider audience.”) This prompted even more interest in Out The Bag Productions - not just by audiences but by new members. Out The Bag Productions was growing rapidly!! At this time, Paula wanted to put something back into the local community. This was were we formed the ideas to create our Actors Workshops where members who were new to the world of theatre could come along and learn something new!! We encouraged members to take part and develop their acting skills, whilst at the same time keeping it fun - which is what theatre is all about!!! We welcome all members of the community to Out the Bag and hope to see you there!!!!
