when ‘making it’ was ‘having it all’ …**

**Welcome to the Heady Heights** …

It’s the year punk rock was born, Concorde entered commercial service and a

tiny Romanian gymnast changed the sport forever.

Archie Blunt is a man with big ideas. He just needs a break for them to be

realised. In a bizarre brush with the light-entertainment business, Archie

unwittingly saves the life of the UK’s top showbiz star, Hank ‘Heady’

Hendricks’, and now dreams of hitting the big-time as a Popular Music

Impresario. Seizing the initiative, he creates a new singing group with five

unruly working-class kids from Glasgow’s East End. Together, they make the

finals of a televised Saturday-night talent show, and before they know it,

fame and fortune beckon for Archie and The High Five. But there’s a

complication; a trail of irate Glaswegian bookies, corrupt politicians and a

determined Scottish WPC known as The Tank are all on his tail…

A hilarious and poignant nod to the elusivity of stardom, in an age when

making it’ was ‘having it all’, _Welcome to the Heady Heights_  is also a

dark, laugh-out-loud comedy, a heartwarming tribute to a bygone age and a

delicious drama about desperate men, connected by secrets and lies, by

accidents of time and, most of all, the city they live in.
