-------------------

Talking About The Fire Created by Chris Thorpe and Claire O’Reilly Written and performed by Chris Thorpe Developed with Rachel Chavkin Nuclear weapons could destroy us all, right now – so why aren’t we talking about them? Sometimes the threat slides into view – Russia invades Ukraine – but that doesn’t make the weapons more dangerous. They’re always dangerous. And one day, deliberately or accidentally, they’ll be used again. 

Talking About The Fire is a show and a conversation. We’ll talk about where we are, where we live, and why it’s important people like us talk about this at all. Created by seven-time Fringe First winner Chris Thorpe and Claire O’Reilly (Abbey Theatre) and developed with Tony Award-winning Rachel Chavkin.

 ★★★★★ ‘It’s all masterfully put together… this show culminates in an encounter that really puts the ‘alive’ into ‘live theatre’. – Time Out 

★★★★★ “It’s precisely the feeling of community and comfort in the room that makes the horror of what Thorpe is describing so powerful.” – Broadway World 

★★★★ “Informative and deeply affecting… Thorpe is an assured and tremendously engaging performer.” – The Stage 

★★★★ ‘Chris Thorpe does what he does with a performative skill that is off-the-charts brilliant. It is an extraordinary evening of theatre.’ – Theatre Reviews Hub
