Seabright Productions Launches UK Tour of TRAINSPOTTING LIVE

"BETTER THAN EITHER THE BOOK OR FILM IN MY OPINION." Irvine Welsh

James Seabright is delighted to announce that the critically acclaimed immersive production of Trainspotting Live - based on Irvine Welsh's seminal book Trainspotting - will be setting out on a highly anticipated UK Tour this year including a return to the Edinburgh Fringe, an off West End season at Riverside Studios, and extensive regional touring.

"SEVENTY-FIVE OF THE MOST INTENSE, FUNNY, AND MOVING MINUTES OF THEATRE I HAVE EVER EXPERIENCED." Box Dust

This punchy, 75 minute production recaptures the passion and the controversy of the famous novel, then globally successful film, and repackages it into an immersive production - the audience are literally part of the show, including the notorious "Worst Toilet in Scotland" scene.

"FRESH, FUNNY, GRIM AND GLORIOUS." ondonist

Trainspotting is the story of Mark Renton and his friends, living through the Edinburgh heroin scene of the 80s. Harry Gibson's original stage adaptation, written before it became the famous blockbuster film, was instantly successful and controversial, and won the Sunday Times Award for Best New Play. In Your Face Theatre's Scottish cast have created a snappy and vibrant affirmation of the power and humour of the piece.

"DO NOT MISS THIS HIDDEN GEM." Plays to See

Choose us. Choose life. Choose mortgage payments; choose washing machines; choose cars; choose sitting on a couch watching mind-numbing and spirit-crushing game shows, stuffing fuckin junk food intae yir mooth. Choose rotting away, pushing and shiteing yersel in a home, a total fuckin embarrassment tae the selfish, fucked-up brats ye've produced. Choose life.

This no-holds-barred immersive, in-yer-face theatre production is a must for avid fans, and if you've never read the book or seen the film: this is your ticket to a ride you won't soon forget.

"A MUST-SEE FOR FANS OF THE NOVEL AND FILM ALIKE." Daily Telegraph
