Production Company:

The Fifth Step
by David Ireland
Directed by Finn den Hertog

Olivier Award-winner Jack Lowden (Slow Horses, Dunkirk) joins Emmy and BAFTA-winner Martin Freeman (The Hobbit, The Responder) in David Ireland’s critically acclaimed and darkly comic new play.

After years in the 12-step programme of Alcoholics Anonymous, James becomes a sponsor to newcomer Luka. Over late-night coffees and shared confessions, the two men forge a fragile friendship. But as Luka approaches step five - the moment of reckoning - their bond is tested by dangerous truths that could unravel both of their recoveries.

Directed by Finn den Hertog, this gripping and provocative production was filmed live from @sohoplace in London’s West End.
