Barber Shop Chronicles made a triumphant return, to the comfort of your own home!
Barber Shop Chronicles was an addition to #NationalTheatreAtHome, which brought theatre to your screens for free.
A National Theatre, Fuel, and Leeds Playhouse co-production, Barber Shop Chronicles by Inua Ellams told the interwoven tales of black men from across the globe who for generations have gathered in barber shops where the banter is barbed and the truth is always telling.
This never-before-seen archive recording was from the production’s second sold-out run at the National Theatre in 2017.
