An edge of your seat theatrical experience, inspired by Jack Kerouac’s ground- breaking novel On the Road.Exploding with words, laughter, music and madness, Beautiful Losers is a drama/comedy based on the relationship between writer Jack Kerouac and con artist/car thief Neal Cassady, and their journeys through America in the 1940s and 1950s. In their pursuit of the ultimate high, they drive to Mexico, accompanied by a soundtrack of cool jazz, conversation, amphetamines and booze. What happens next is a combination of high times, low deeds and cruel tragedy. This is the story of the man who created the Beat Generation, a story of fame and its consequences. If there was ever an excuse to steal a car, drive all night and howl at the moon – Beautiful Losers is it. A House of Hudson Production. Written by Mike Hudson, Directed by Margaret-Mary Hollins. Starring Paul Glover and Scott Wills

A story of friendship, passion, creativity and never giving up, Beautiful Losers packs a whopping tale in just 70 minutes.”Theatreview“Nothing short of brilliant.” Lynne Freeman, Capital Times “Heartbreaking, hilarious, unmissable.” NZ Herald
