Tues 18th April          Everyman Theatre: Tuebrook Tanzi - Venus Flytrap   World Premiere


Trafford Tanzi is a play by Clare Luckham. It was originally performed as Tuebrook Tanzi, The Venus Flytrap by the Everyman Theatre Company in Liverpool in 1978 before moving to Manchester as Trafford Tanzi in 1980, later achieving commercial success in London.  
Cast may have included Margi Clarke, Julie Walters 

Singer and actress Toyah Willcox starred in a production at the Mermaid Theatre in London, from March to August 1983. 
In 1983, the play was produced on Broadway under the title Teaneck Tanzi: The Venus Flytrap. Alternating in the lead role of Tanzi were Deborah Harry (lead singer of the band Blondie) and Caitlin Clarke; the role was double-cast because of the strenuous nature of the wrestling involved. Also appearing in the Broadway production was comedian Andy Kaufman as the referee. Despite the play's previous success in London, Teaneck Tanzi closed on Broadway after one performance.
