Having received rave reviews across the board that have described the show as "seventy-five of the most intense, funny, and moving minutes of theatre I have ever experienced", "unapologetic and brutal" and "a masterpiece", Harry Gibson's stunning stage adaptation of Irvine Welsh's cult classic novel Trainspotting is about to set up in Bristol for a run at The Loco Klub.
The punchy and fiercely unique production perfectly captures the passion, controversy and intensity of the hit novel and globally successful film and repackages it into an interactive experience where the audience are thrown straight into the mix.
The story of main protagonist Mark Renton and his friends living through the Edinburgh heroin scene of the 1980s, Trainspotting Live was an instant success upon its debut, winning the Sunday Times Award for Best New Play. The acclaimed revival, which has already been seen in London, New York and at the Edinburgh Fringe, brings together an accomplished cast to create a vibrant statement of the power and dark humour of the piece.
With 16 shows between Tuesday 12th and Sunday 24th March, there's ample opportunity to catch Trainspotting Live at The Loco Klub this month, and the exciting underground venue is surely a perfect fit. You certainly don't want to miss out.
