About this deal

At least one major ethnographic study also observed bouncing from within, as part of a British project to study violent subcultures. Beyond studying the bouncer culture from the outside, the group selected a suitable candidate for covert, long-term research. The man had previously worked as a bouncer before becoming an academic, and while conversant with the milieu, it required some time for him to re-enter bouncing work in a new locality. [35] The study has, however, attracted some criticism due to the fact that the researcher, while fulfilling his duties as a bouncer and being required to set aside his academic distance, would have been at risk of losing objectivity—though it was accepted that this quandary might be difficult to resolve. [36] This said, the second act develops in structure so that when the final dance routine arrives it feels as though the piece has come satisfyingly full circle. And it is in these closing minutes that the outstanding cast, with no more dramatic delivery to consider, really let themselves go. Bouncers must not have ownership of any type of firearm during their service even if they have a valid firearms license.

There were monologues where the tempo of the play needed to be slowed down, but there were rapid interplays of dialogue between characters when they needed to maintain the upbeat rhythm. Much of the script rhymed too. This added to the humour in the play! Some specific scenes were particularly impressive. In some dancing scenes, only the four actors managed to effectively give the impression of being caught in a crowd of people. They pushed, shoved, crawled, and mopped sweat from their brows; everything appropriately exaggerated. Hong Kong also features a somewhat unusual situation where some bouncers are known to work for prostitutes, instead of being their pimps. Hong Kong police have noted that due to the letter of the law, they sometimes had to charge the bouncer for illegally extorting the women when the usually expected dominance situation between the sex worker and her "protector" was in fact reversed.

He dispels tensions between Eric and Judd, but despite his peaceful intersessions with his work mates he is prone to violence towards the clubs patrons if they get out of hand. His temper has to be curtailed by Eric who claims Les has no self-control. However he displays a broad mindedness towards gay men which makes him an object of suspicion with the other bouncers.

An enormous amount of booze is downed before these revellers even get to the club, and not all of them pass the door supervisors’ scrutiny. We have been warned us all in advance: "you’re not ‘tough guys’ and you’re not ‘bad girls’". Woebetide anyone who ignores the warning. The punters’ night turns out hard enough for some, without falling foul of the bouncers (sorry, door supervisors).

Not only was the pitch and tenor of the voice involved in character transition, but accents were also a useful tool in this. At one point, the actors had to play upper-class men, ‘going golfing’. Their accents and their postures changed dramatically: they became more formal, more proper, their voices became deeper and cleaner, and they looked taller as if they were aware of their importance. The audience found these two upper class men very funny because it was so contrasting from the other, more coarse characters. Dry ice is used as well as rotating lights, like those of a mirror ball, projected onto the arches creating a 1980’s atmosphere in the disco. Within Buddhist lore, the Nio, the twin guardian statues who decorate the entrances of temples, dojos, and various places related with religious importance, are believed to be the embodiment of wrathful deity bodhisattvas such as Vajrapani, Mahasthamaprapta, Vajrasattva, Acala, or various figures within Buddhist legend who accompanied Gautama Buddha during his journeys to spread his teachings to protect him and aid in cases needing justified force.

It was a rough contour of a heart, which was again symbolic of the theme of the play. At the end of Act One, the heart was highlighted in red, perhaps to emphasize what the characters were looking for. Music was an element that was used throughout the performance. Light rhythmic instrumentals were used to build up the tempo etc. and sometimes, specific songs were used as part of the comedy. When Rosy found that her boyfriend had been cheating on her, she sobs loudly on stage, and suddenly, the song ‘I will survive’ plays on the speakers with Rosie lip-synching along in a dramatic and hilarious way!

A confetti cannon concealed out of sight on the left of the stage throws out golden coin-sized paper when the disco starts, while red confetti is used when tensions are stirred up in the club. Lest anyone is still unaware of the plot (if that’s the right word) of Bouncers, four contrasting characters are manning the door at the Northern club. The play takes us through maybe seven hours in 100 minutes of stage time. A lot happens, but nothing really out of the ordinary. Meanwhile, various groups prepare for their night out, then descend upon the club, get drunk, have minor disasters, spend crazy amounts and end up unsure whether they’ve really had the night of their lives.
