Product Information

A very important message which is current and will be relevant for the duration of this technology-driven age. It was good but I will have to say that I liked the movie better which I never say, but it would be interesting to see a performance of this. A great play nonetheless which is difficult to actually enjoy because of the nature of it, but Enda highlights the dangers of conformity and what can happen if a joke is taken too far. Disclaimer/Trigger warning: This production contains adult themes and language from the very start, as well as references to suicide, depression and family trauma.

All of the characters have their own insecurities, their own ‘issues’ and they use an internet chat room to blow off some steam and express their thoughts of the world.

Conversations range in subject from Britney Spears to Willy Wonka to - suicide: Jim is depressed and talks of ending his life and Eva and William decide to do their utmost to persuade him to carry out his threat. A very thought provoking play, although I think I am going to have to either read the ending again or watch a staged version of it to fully understand.But when a new member, Jim, joins to share his depression and thoughts of suicide, the conversation takes a dark turn. Principal photography took place in early 2010 at Shepperton Studios in Shepperton, Surrey, [5] with some outdoor scenes shot in Camden and Primrose Hill.
