The Fifth Step

Exciting news!

The Fifth Step @sohoplace By David Ireland Starring Jack Lowden and Martin Freeman Neal Street Productions, Playful Productions and National Theatre of Scotland (NTS) are delighted to announce that David Ireland’s acclaimed new play The Fifth Step will transfer to London’s West End for a strictly limited season from 10 May until 26 July 2025. Originally performed as part of the Edinburgh International Festival 2024, this NTS production has been further developed for this West End premiere and the new opportunities for restaging that @sohoplace offers. Directed by rising star Finn den Hertog, associate artist at NTS, it will be a rare chance to see two of the UK’s most exciting acting talents in the intimacy of the in-the-round space @sohoplace. Jack Lowden reprises his performance as Luka and Martin Freeman will play the role of James in David Ireland’s funny and unflinchingly honest drama about addiction, masculinity and faith. Step 1: honesty. Step 2: faith. Step 3: surrender. Step 4: self-examination. After many years in the 12-step programme of Alcoholics Anonymous, James agrees to become the sponsor of newcomer Luka. On the journey to sobriety, the pair bond over black coffee, trade stories, and build a fragile friendship out of their shared experiences. On the cusp of Step 5, their conversations must turn to confessionals, with progress hinging on Luka revealing secrets that could lead back to alcohol. But it’s clear that James also has dangerous truths in his past, truths that threaten the trust on which both their recoveries depend. @sohoplace 4 Soho Pl, Charing Cross Rd, London W1D 3BG 10 May-26 July Mon-Sat at 7.30pm Thu and Sat at 2.30pm Tickets from £25 (plus fees) available from 10am 23rd Jan www.thefifthstep.co.uk

I want to see this. 😵

And hey, didn't I get an ask about Martin doing theatre again a while ago? There is your answer. 😁

Michael's WRRR audience read to filth in The Guardian's review:

"Each will undoubtedly bring their own qualities but the work suits Sheen’s gift for whimsy, indignation and rousing exhortation. He also navigates an eager-beaver crowd projecting a giggly, almost protective energy towards him: there are no shortage of volunteers for audience participation."

❤️ June 17 , 2023. Brokeback Mountain at Sohoplace theater. Mike, Lucas and the rest of the cast are taking their bows ❤️ FIRST ROW BABY!!

[nopeferatu]

the first track for brokeback mountain: the musical just dropped and 😭 oh BOY is it sad. it's called "Sharing Your Heart" and it's from Alma's point of view, and so I'm sure you can deduce that its about Alma realizing that she isn't the only person that Ennis loves. I can't wait for the rest of the songs to drop! I hope they make it available on spotify, as well as physically purchaseable.

10 Favourite Things I Saw In The Theatre in 2024

Macbeth at the Donmar and Harold Pinter —Transcendental, literally took Shakespeare’s best-constructed play and solved the dramaturgical problems, everyone involved did magical work

White Rabbit Red Rabbit @ sohoplace — With a play like this you want to be thinking about the the play text and the way it spirals out into several layers of meaning, who is destroying whom and why

The Importance of Being Earnest at the National Theatre — Effervescent, speaks to the queer London of 2024 with a wit and irrepressible joy that is nothing short of life-affirming, silliness of the highest caliber 

Now, I See at Stratford East — Evocative and interested in the shape, texture and pressure of memory, the complexities of grief, and beautifully ritualistic use of physical theatre

Quiz Night at Vaginus Hemmingway’s Cabaret Rathole at FUSEBOX Kingston — As a show it feels a bit like gathering up the pieces of a shattered world and trying to fit them back together, it carves out a temporal hollow to curl up in

Tranorexia Samosa at the Bread and Roses — Episodic and well paced, curiously atmospheric, reflecting the grit and hard-scrabble realities of life in London on the edge of the night

One In Four at TheSpace Surgeons Hall —Hysterically funny and gasp-inducing. You end up caring so much about space aliens in a scenario inspired by a tumblr post. Just what you want from Edinburgh Fringe. 

The Real Thing at The Old Vic — Max Webster really said this play may be written by a conservative but we’re driving the car now and you’re all going to see its leftist moral carburetor 

The Human Body at Donmar Warehouse —Charming, funny and narratively satisfying, realistically textured human drama takes the front seat in this story surrounding the founding of the NHS 

Waiting for Godot at The Haymarket — Lucian Msamati is dryly hilarious, Ben Whishaw is startled and wide-eyed and the production itself feels incisively infused with the quotidian absurdity of real life
