Generation 9/11: So Far / So Close

Don’t let the subject put you off. This is a captivating and quietly profound one-man show by San Franciscan Chris Wolfe that refracts 9/11 through the memories of ordinary people, right up to the present day. He’s a charismatic performer, and his characterisation is strong and bold, yet finely etched. At times the show is shocking, at others funny, and Wolfe isn’t afraid to challenge his audience’s preconceptions.

theSpaces @ Surgeons Hall, 0845 508 8515, until 27 Aug (not 14, 21), 1.05pm, £7 (£6).
