...visual factors of the play remain fairly quiet as well, never detracting from the action on stage, save for one moment. In an unfortunate set decision, the barricade blocking the entrance of the cave to hell goes flying, awkwardly disrupting the rhythm of the show. But unlike the soundtrack of “The Flies,” it was a forgivable error...
...better or for worse, the soundtrack does make the play feel more like a movie, and because of this, the parallels with Woody Allen’s early work are especially clear. Like Allen’s films, “Last Call” focuses on the sexual and intellectual neuroses of Manhattan’s educated classes. As a writer, Allen lavishes attention on characters that banter and bicker, and so does Chainey. This is where the actors’ otherwise solid performances fall short.

Your band member, Warren Ellis, helped you with the soundtrack. And you have another band called Grinderman that's basically made up of members from your original band, the Bad Seeds. All your projects involve the same people. Why? I have huge trust issues. That's basically it. I've worked with these guys for so long and we understand each other incredibly well, there's a near-psychic thing going on which means I can work incredibly fast. I don't have to explain things or teach anyone anything. It serves me well...
