Just how far will five Kiwi blokes go to earn a buck?\xa0

Ladies Night sees Craig, Barry, Norm, Wes, and Gavin dare each other to put on a strip show to earn some extra cash, and rapidly find themselves faced with the terrifying prospect of actually having to strip in front of a crowd.\xa0

New Zealand comedy royal Mark Wright is joining the cast as Bernie, the aging, sleazy nightclub owner. \xa0

Wright told Mike Hosking that while the play is a comedy, it\u2019s a thought provoking one, as they explore a lot of the issues prominent in the 80\u2019s.\xa0

He said it\u2019s interesting to see how far we\u2019ve come in some of those areas in the nearly forty years since the time the play is set in.\xa0
