A CHANCE IN HELL Royal Lyceum. Edinburgh. Fri 18 — Sat 19 Jul
A load of old malls
I did most of my growing up in the 19805. This perhaps is why I have a nostalgia bypass. l was keenly aware that I'd been cheated even at the time, for aside from the extreme and ongoing Conservative backlash, perhaps indeed, because of it. it was culturally the dullest decade of the last century. Only pure hormonal drives gave me any sexual desire at all. for women (and men, too for that matter) seemed to embark on a fashion competition to see who could render themselves the most unshaggable. Clothes got so baggy and move aroundable in that you didn‘t need a house. and hair had to be lowered on by a crane to be acceptable. Music was pish. and as sex symbols, all we had was Sabrina. You can keep your J-Lo — Sabrina's still the second sexiest hot-blooded Latin woman to tread the earth.
All the same, people will create retro-chic from anything. and I suppose nostalgia is forgivable if you weren‘t actually there at the time. That's the story with Tim Primrose, the young writer of this new production for the much-acclaimed Lyceum Youth Theatre. A musical comedy with a cast of 55 and music by Kirsten Roan, the play speaks of the shopping mall mentality of the youth of that generation. and for that matter, this generation. The recent successes of this young company, which has been invited to attend both the Royal National and Oslo‘s Den Apne Theatre with its production of Jon Fosse's Purple. make this well worth the visit. A mullet-see. (Steve Cramer)
