Fifteen years after TRAINSPOTTING, what has become of Renton, Sickboy, Begbie & Spud? Disturbing, shocking & extremely funny. Contains swearing, sexual language, debauchery, drug use and even more swearing. As if you'd expect anything else...
A full length stage adaptation by Davie Carswell, of the novel by the same name, which sold out one of the largest Pleasance venues at a month long run at Edinburgh Fringe ’22, earning rave reviews from audiences and critics. The show has since toured the UK before transferring to the West End.
Mark Renton hasn’t been back to Leith since… well, since he robbed his pals and f***ed off to Amsterdam. Life has been… good? But there’s always been something missing. How will SICKBOY, BEGBIE & SPUD react to the return of RENTON? Have they all settled down and become respectable members of society? Did they CHOOSE LIFE? Absolutely not!
“It’s difficult to imagine anyone but Robert Carlyle taking on the role of psychopath Begbie but Chris Gavin is a worthy successor” Natalie O’Donoghue – Broadway World
