Cashy C's, a rap musical about life on the breadline, is being performed in a recreated pawnbrokers.
Most plays start when the curtain goes up in a theatre. But Cashy C's: The Musical begins when the metal security shutter rises on the front of a pawnbrokers shop.
Between the play's scenes, a rapper emerges from a DJ booth to deliver his musical commentary on the drama unfolding on the shop floor. This used to be a frozen food shop, but was empty and has now been kitted out as a pawnbrokers to provide the setting for Cashy C's: The Musical. The name is a thinly veiled reference to a particular pawn shop chain.
"And then when I looked into the back, there were people's kettles and things that people were temporarily selling - things that were important to them, or actually just household objects, or their kids' Christmas presents that they've had to resell, that they're then going to buy back for more money.Every kitchen essential or children's toy could tell a story about why someone needed to trade it in before buying it back later with interest.
For research, Taylor spoke to real pawn shop staff, who told her those using their services are not just the "stereotypical characters that you might expect to see"."One kept saying about this train driver. It's people who've got various different kinds of jobs. It's not just unemployed people. It's not just people with five kids. Not that it should not be OK for them.
