One of them went on the anti-war protest, shouted their lungs out, then got horrendously and staggeringly drunk. The other stayed at home, watched TV for a bit, and thought about the future.
Mike Bartlett's play An Intervention premiered at the Watford Palace Theatre in April 2014, in a co-production with Paines Plough.
REVIEWS:
"Engaged, entertaining and forthright... not only politically engaged but also fiercely uncompromising in its mission to entertain."
Exeunt Magazine
"Incisive, intimate, closely focused… has Bartlett's astute wit and extraordinary ability to pinpoint the way maturity can suddenly slip away."
Financial Times
"Superb… intensely dramatic."
WhatsOnStage
"Nimble and elegant… [a] smart two-hander."
