A night out on the town for an Essex boy and girl. This wonderful two-hander from Luke Barnes is definitely worth watching. Barnes, a Liverpudlian, has not only perfectly captured the zeitgeist but also the very natural rhythms and language of a couple of disillusioned young people. The acting is quite sublime but ultimately it is the script that hypnotises, crackling with energy and dripping with humour. Chapel Street is on at the Old Red Lion in Islington and I urge you buy a ticket now. This really is a cut above the rest - and it's Barnes first play.
