Name’s Bett, Patrick Bett, Private Eye.The landlord of my local would say I was a good customer. My ex-wife would say I’m a lousy husband.I’m in two minds…

A lady comes to me in search of a girl, seems she’s run straight from her nightmares and into my dreams. Suits me I say – I can find her - but for night work I charge double.

“hard boiled pulp fiction with magical realism – superb.” 
The Stage on benchtours’ CARNiVALi

Step inside the stagetruck and be transported by this surreal film-noir style thriller. 45 minutes of drama, glamour and excitement – a big show in a small space.

Stagetruck was created by Edinburgh based touring company benchtours. It is a magical miniature auditorium housed within a large industrial truck - designed to deliver the same sophisticated blend of multi-media illusions and theatrical tricks, whether in the Highlands or on the South Bank.

“benchtours have established a formidable reputation for their visual style”
