On his graduation day in 1978, John looks back over his teenage years with warmth, remembering the joys, tensions and sorrows of family life in West Yorkshire. John, now older and educated, finds himself alienated from his working-class family who cannot understand his theatrical aspirations. 'Happy Families', first produced in 1991, is an affectionate look at a ordinary family struggling with change.

'Bouncers', originally produced at the Edinburgh Fringe in 1977, is an outrageous and hilarious parody of the disco scene. The four brutish bouncers of the title portray over twenty different characters as we are invited for a night out on the town. We see them as giggly girls and lads on the make preparing for the big night out as we follow their progress to the disco floor. There, we also meet an entire cross-section of disco-goers, including Hooray Henrys, pogoing punks and drunken slobs! The evening's events are set against the tatty glitzy glamour, flashing lights and pulsating beat of the night-club scene. 'Bouncers (1990s Remix)' is a revised and expanded version, first given in Hull in 1991.
