THE latest production at Rockingham Theatre Ladies Night was a crowd puller.
The action is based around Lipsticks Night Club, where seven unemployed young men try hard to earn a few dollars to help with household debts, but times are hard and tempers get more than a little frayed with minor setbacks.
After seeing the crowds drawn to the club when a professional strip team is hired, the lads realise that they have the same assets but perhaps not quite the same shape, but they come to believe that if they form a team and work together, with a bit of help, they too could be earning buckets of money.

Opening night for Ladies Night was a charity performance with the CWA Baldivis Belles Branch and the Rockingham Sound Day View Club each benefiting with a donation from the Rockingham Theatre Company.
Baldivis Belles member Linda Tammen said the $290 would go towards helping a local women’s refuge and making starter kits for women with nothing.
Rockingham Sound Day View Club president Valery Buckley said the $440 donation would help sponsor 10 Smith Family Learning for Life students.
Ladies Night continues for three more weekends, on November 17, 18, 24, 25, December 1 and 2 from 7.30pm.
Tickets from www.rockinghamtheatre.com or Rockingham Visitors Centre, Kent Street.
