I'll Be Barabbas Next Time is a story about two young men growing up in the East End of London in the late 1960's and early 70's. Liam McNally and Michael Bennett appear to be at different ends of a spectrum that encompasses many highs and almost as many pitfalls as two young lives could encounter. The overriding beacon that shines through is the eternal friendship that exists between them. Although Liam is primarily the stronger of the two on the surface, as events materialise, their obvious dependence on each other manifests itself in ways hardly mundane or run of the mill. Their experiences cascade, intertwined indelibly through a mutual respect, hard to define, but nonetheless obvious. To say that the narrative is only about the two friends is misleading. Many other individuals, family, friends, and some not so friendly, are all integral pieces of the jigsaw. All the events eventually come together in a climactic scenario that affects everybody. However, hope springs eternal.
