Our “thought provoking and funny” show Time Critical will return this October for the first time since 2017 – updated for 2025 with a brand new cast!

Two competing actors, tyrannised by a chess clock, struggle to compress 34 years of global vs personal history into an allocation of just one minute each per year.

The show accelerates through reenactments of landmark moments in recent history and fragments of past Stan’s Cafe productions towards an exhilarating finale.

The show explores the editing of history and how we live our lives in relation to the world around us. We are reminded how much has happened, how much has changed and how little has moved on.

Tour Dates:

Birmingham Rep – October 7 – 8th
