The Chairs, Almeida review - a tragi-comic double act for the ages by Demetrios Matheou

A new translation is uproariously funny, if a little too clever for its own good By all accounts, whenever The Chairs is dusted off for a new production it manages to resonate for audiences, as would any half-decent play laughing in the face of the futility of existence. And this cheeky, charming, often uproarious new spin on Eugène Ionesco's "tragic farce" has landed at just the right time.
