Sex, drugs and 80s trance. Irvine Welsh’s drug fuelled modern classic bursts into life at WIN TICKETS TO TRAINSPOTTING LIVE
Sex, drugs and 80s trance. Irvine Welsh’s drug fuelled modern classic bursts into life at Fortyfivedownstairs, Melbourne in March.
Following sold out and extended seasons in the United Kingdom, Andrew Kay and Associates present the King’s Head Theatre and an In Your Face production of Irvine Welsh’s cult, generation-defining novel Trainspotting.
This adrenalin filled production recaptures the controversy of the famous novel and globally successful film, and repackages it into a totally immersive production to portray the underground drug scene in a smacked-out Edinburgh. Kicking off with a rave complete with strobe lighting and glow-sticks, audiences are given a no-holds-barred, close-up view of the lives of Renton, Begbie and Sickboy as they are thrown head first into a world of hedonism and the bleak reality of heroin addiction.
Harry Gibson’s original stage adaptation, written before it became the famous blockbuster film, was instantly successful and controversial, and won the Sunday Times Award for Best New Play. For this 21st anniversary production, the all Scottish cast have created a snappy and vibrant affirmation of the power and humour of the piece, with Rachael Anderson (June), Chris Dennis (Begbie), Calum Barbour (Mother Superior), Greg Esplin (Tommy), Michael Lockerbie (Sickboy), Erin Marshall (Alison) and Gavin Ross (Renton).
