Coffee shop hilarity in play

Comedy, music and an anthropological look at life by a coffee house barista are all promised in the latest Highlights show which is coming to Amble Wooler and Whittingham.

Confessions of a Red-headed Coffee Shop Girl, stars Rebecca Perry as anthropology graduate Joanie Little who is stuck working as a barista. Rather than let this get her down, she decides to make the most of her “underemployment”.

So, much like Jane Goodall did with chimpanzees, this upbeat Miss studies her only available subjects – the eccentric customers of her coffee shop ‘jungle’.
