The iconic, controversial, ground-breaking and most Tony Nominated play of all time comes to London. Fisayo Akinade, James Cusati-Moyer, Kit Harington, Aaron Heffernan, Chalia La Tour, Maite Jauregui, Irene Sofia Lucio and Olivia Washington star in Jeremy O.Harris’s extraordinary play about race, identity and sexuality in twenty-first century America.
