Information for The Chaos That Has Been and Will No Doubt Return
at Unity Theatre, Liverpool (Play). Set over one chaotic night in austerity-hit Luton, the play follows two best friends as they chase the highs of youth against a backdrop of systemic neglect. What starts as a blur of noughties bangers and corner-shop gin spirals into something darker - a raw, real-time collision of friendship, violence, and survival. Told with biting wit and lyrical intensity, this production is a powerful exploration of class, identity and the rage of a generation forced to fight for freedom, while also capturing the universal and relatable experience of transition and uncertainty that accompanies major life changes.
Approximate runtime 1 hour 20 minutes.
