In 1960s Liverpool Tom and Billy hide their love in the closet, then go their separate ways. As pits close and the dole queues grow, Mickey and Russell escape to find Heaven in 1980s London. But today the paparazzi turn judge and jury over a love story that could tear this family apart. Then a grieving mother gets lost up a mountain, with a vicar for some dubious consolation. A deeply moving, funny, uplifting and often magical story about love, honesty and being brave enough to sing out at the top of your voice - with style. 'Canary' premiered at the Liverpool Playhouse in April 2010.
