Trainspotting The Musical in London
Starring:
Robbie Scott
Based on the dark, bizarre 1993 novel by Irvine Welsh, Trainspotting follows a group of young Scottish men: Mark Renton, an on-and-off heroin junkie, and his friends Danny "Spud" Murphy, Simon "Sick Boy" Williamson, Francis "Franco" Begbie. Cynical and occasionally shocking, it follows their experiences grappling with drinking, sex, family problems, HIV, death, and most of all, heroin addiction.
After captivating readers with its cynical tone and unique narrative style, Trainspotting was adapted into a cult classic film in 1996 by Danny Boyle, starring Ewan McGregor as Renton. It’s since been adapted into multiple stage plays, and even a live immersive theatrical experience called Trainspotting Live. Now a new musical adaptation is coming to the West End, promising to put a breathtaking new spin on this complex story and its unforgettable characters. Lead character Renton will be played by Robbie Scott, who will be making his West End debut, with further casting to be announced. The score will include original music, as well as tracks from the film, such as Iggy Pop’s Lust For Life and Lou Reed's Perfect Day. Welsh said, "This musical has a bigger, loudly beating human heart than either the book or the film." With Welsh’s involvement, the musical is sure to stay true to the original spirit of the story.
If you loved the book and film, you won’t want to miss the brand new musical adaptation of this dark, haunting story.

A brave attempt to bring an iconic movie to theatreI’m sorry to say this was the most disappointing show I’ve seen in the west end.

ShockingUnmemorable original songs. Line dancing was just of the wall. Not quite sure what that has to do with the story.

Great acting, shame about the audience!Obviously very hard to compete with such an iconic film but they got the characters pretty much right and the acting, singing & movement was very good. Unfortunately it was press night and ive never been in an audience so rude & distracting…constantly getting up for drinks and the toilet, talking and at one point someone even filming on their phone. A bloke was mansplaining the story to his partner behind us in a loud voice and the two people in front spent half the show kissing, rummaging in a handbag, fluffing their hair up etc. Ive seen better behaved kids at the theatre.
