A celebrated stage adaptation of Chris Mullin's first-hand account of life in British government.
A stage adaptation of Chris Mullin's political memoir, charting his time at the heart of the New Labour government.
Chris Mullin’s witty and irreverent take on contemporary politics adapted for the stage, reflecting three worlds during a time of crisis and change – the febrile political village of Westminster, the flash points of Africa which he toured as a minister, and the fragile community he served as an MP.
Fast paced and very funny... Blending gossip, insight and details of the frustrations of ministerial and backbench life alike... [an] exhilarating adaptation...I cannot recommend it too highly. * Four Stars - Michael Billington, The Guardian *
[An] absorbing evening...a bit of a must. * 4* The Telegraph *
Anyone with even a passing interest in how this country has been governed over the past 15 years is advised to walk on in. Mullin's decency and ideological conviction - not to mention a wonderful sense of humour, directed at himself as well as his colleagues - guides our journey safely. It's impossible not to feel politics is the poorer without Mullin. * 4* Evening Standard *
