About A Play, A Pie, A Pint: Dookin’ Out
Recommended for Age 16 +
Co-presented with A Play, A Pie and A Pint, Aberdeen Performing Arts and Traverse Theatre.
Written by Éimi Quinn Directed by Jennifer Dick
From her Easterhouse cooncil flat, terminally ill Diane dreams of a peaceful end in the hills of snowy Switzerland, but her state pension just won’t cover it.
She manages to pull on the heartstrings of her sweet carer Julie who, scorned by her cheating husband, hatches a plan to both feel sexy again and help Diane with her dying wish – by becoming a dominatrix! With the help of a young postie who gets them set up on OnlyFans, their kinky enterprise begins…but life, death and chaos stand in the way of ‘sex-cess’.
Dookin’ Oot is a riotous black comedy about a wild money-making scheme in an Easterhouse cooncil flat and going out wi’ a bang!

Assisted dying, terminal illness, strong sexual references
