BWW Reviews: BACK DOWN, Birmingham Rep Theatre, March 2 2015
by Jenny Antill - Mar 3, 2015
Back Down is a collaboration between Birmingham Repertory Theatre and the Roundhouse and is the debut play written by Steven Camden, who may be better known as the spoken word artist - Polarbear. The story centres around three friends who embark on a climb up Mount Snowdon as their final outing before Luke goes off to university. The play is ultimately about their friendship and how such change and growing up can put strains on their relationship. It is a sentimental piece of writing (perhaps overly at times) but is heart-warming and you can really relate to these characters on an emotional level.
