"‘The Reprobates’ is an interesting satirical observation into modern nightclub culture, shared in a way to make you consider the horrors of wild nights out."
From the perspective of a nightclub manager, take a look behind the scenes of modern nightlife. Munks, the nightclub in question and the setting for the majority of ‘The Reprobates’ by Benjamin Grose is in decline and resistant to the changes imposed by its new owners. There’s camaraderie between the kaleidoscope of staff as they handle the drunken patrons and blinkered new owners through the seasons and the ups and downs of Munks. Anyone who has stepped foot in a nightclub will find something in this story to reminisce or cringe about, and I’m sure anyone who has ever worked in one will be reminded of their own wild and shocking stories. This feels like an astute observation of nightclub life, while not glamorous it’s not boring either, and the narrator’s blunt tone delivers the goings-on with a deadpan wit. The lights are up and what is normally hidden with strobe lights and loud music is on display for all to see. ‘The Reprobates’ is an interesting satirical observation into modern nightclub culture, shared in a way to make you consider the horrors of wild nights out.
