The Chairs Revisited

Following five-star success with Miss Julie (*****, ThreeWeeks) and The Nine Lives of Antoine de Saint-Exupéry (*****, CafeBabel.com), the veterans are back with a perfect lockdown party.

'Brilliant new version of Eugene Ionesco's surreal, funny and moving mini-masterpiece with rhyming rhythms and sizzling dialogue' (Scotsman). 'A pot-pourri of word-plays, slapstick and physical comedy. Well-paced theatre and highly entertaining. A wee bit like Waiting for Godot meets The Marx Brothers' ***** (Herald).
