Waiting For Gateaux

Liverpool favourite Pauline Daniels takes the double hot seat as both director of Waiting For Gateaux and she plays the lead character of Maureen. Pauline is joined by a fantastic cast of Suzanne Collins as Sophie, Lynn Clarke as Jackie and Andy Ford as Donald. With more cast to be confirmed.

Maureen is a ‘big-boned’ 50-something widow who runs Mo-tivators, the worst health and fitness club in the country. The group meet in a small hall in the middle of nowhere, and the club only attracts clientele who have nothing better to do. This is club where you can have your cake and eat it – quite literally!

Jackie comes to get away from her philandering husband and she’s started to bring along her young sister Whitney to keep her out of trouble. Donald comes because he secretly loves Maureen – he’s lost 12 stone so far – and if he doesn’t ask her out soon there’ll be nothing left of him!

Things seem to be on the up when Sophie, a researcher for a reality TV programme, comes to check out the club. But when a snowstorm arrives it brings with it revelations which will change their lives forever in this comedy about friendship, frostbite and French fries.
