Snapdragon Productions, Matthew Kelly

Snapdragon Productions announce the UK tour of their acclaimed revival of Richard Bean's Toast for 2016, starring Matthew Kelly and Simon Greenall reprising their roles as Nellie and Cecil.

Another Sunday night shift. The smell of bread baking. The industrial thump of the machines that never stop. The ovens are cranked up to full blast, the factory is humming, and everyone wants to be somewhere else. But this shift is going to be different. Because when a crisis hits the factory, the men have more to lose than just their wages.

The play, which was Bean’s first to be professionally produced on stage, is based on the year he spent working in a mass production bread plant as a teenager, with each character inspired by someone he worked alongside.
