Trafalgar Studios 2
4 January – 18 February 2016
Every night on the news there’s literally always some sort of massively catastrophic end-of-the-world shit going down: genocide, earthquake, terrorism, school shooting – it’s endless, you know? And I always wonder ‘how would I cope, if that happened to me?’
Transferred to Trafalgar Studios 2 after a sell-out run at Theatre503, Stuart Slade‘s BU21 follows six Londoners in the aftermath of a terrorist attack. By turns terrifying, inspiring, brutal, heart breaking and hilarious, BU21 is verbatim theatre from the very near future.
Intelligent, questioning and very funny – The Stage *****
When did you ever see a terror-plot rom-com? BU21 dares you to laugh – because if you can’t laugh, right, the terrorists have won. Haven’t they? …a theatrical joyride – WhatsOnStage ****
Slade is an Alan Bennett for a millennial generation – Broadway World *****
