The name is Eric ‘Rubber-Legs’ Devine.
Niceties over, let’s set the scene.

The time’s around 1964.
A year either side though, it could be more.
Where the hems were high, and the fringes low.

Saturday Night meant the Club A-Go-Go!

Though it all takes place in this club of mine.
It could have been any from around that time.
Though they may have had a different name
Kids you find inside are all the same.

With the music loud, and the light down low
Any club could have been the Club A-Go-Go

The kids don’t come here just to dance
The club is where they find the first taste of romance.

Couples meet, and couples drift apart, But Eric’s always here to mend a broken heart. They treat this place like a home from home
I treat them as if they were one of my own…

So I’d like to welcome you one and all
To one of life’s great finishing schools
A breading ground of a teenage dream
A microcosm of the teenage scene
Where the kids learned all they had to know

On Saturday Night at the Club A-Go-Go.

It's Saturday night at the provincial "Club A-Go-Go" and the blokes and birds are on the pull.

The girls, chalk-faced and pale lipped are desperate to look like Twiggy, Sandy Shaw or Dusty Springfield, the lads, would-be Beatles.

However, beneath the girls' skimpy Mary Quant copied dresses beat virginal Barbara Cartland hearts,..

... while inside the lads' hipster trousers lurk the impulses which have driven adolescents to distraction since the dawn of time.

Watched over by ageing rocker Eric (Rubber-legs) De Vere, the club's seen-it-all, done-it-all owner, we follow them as they wend their way through teenage sexual mores as rigid and predictable as any New Guinea tribesman's initiation rights.

After breaking all records at the Arts Theatre in London's West End, A SLICE OF SATURDAY NIGHT, went on to complete four major national tours of Britain, two European tours, two tours of Japan, returning to the west end for a second run at the Strand Theatre.

The show has now enjoyed well over 300 productions world-wide and has been translated into nine languages.

Recently the show played a limited season Off-Broadway under the American title "Café A Go-Go".

Productions of Café A Go-Go are set to open in Detroit and Toronto.
