National Theatre Live – The Fifth Step
The Fifth Step
by David Ireland
directed by Finn den Hertog
Olivier Award-winner Jack Lowden (Slow Horses, Dunkirk) is joined by Emmy and BAFTA-winner
Martin Freeman (The Hobbit, The Responder) in the critically acclaimed and subversively funny new
play by David Ireland.
After years in the 12-step programme of Alcoholics Anonymous, James becomes a sponsor to
newcomer Luka. The pair bond over black coffee, trade stories and build a fragile friendship out of
their shared experiences. But as Luka approaches step five – the moment of confession – dangerous
truths emerge, threatening the trust on which both of their recoveries depend.
Finn den Hertog directs the provocative and entertaining production filmed live from @sohoplace on
London’s West End.
