Barber Shop Chronicles

Inua Ellams’ generously funny, heart-warming and insightful smash-hit play is set in five African cities: Johannesburg, Harare, Kampala, Lagos, Accra, and London. Inspired in part by the story of a Leeds barber, Barber Shop Chronicles invites the audience into a unique environment where the banter may be barbed, but the truth always telling. Filmed live at the National Theatre's Dorfman Theatre in 2017.
