Direct from the Bush Theatre, Shifters will play on the Duke of York’s Theatre from twelfth August – twelfth October for a strictly restricted 9-week run.

E-book your tickets now and prepare to fall for this “tender, cosmic and cleverly unpredictable love story that can go away you wishing for a sequel” (The Stage).

Written by Benedict Lombe (Lava, winner of the Susan Smith Blackburn Prize for Playwriting), directed by Night Normal Theatre Award-winner Lynette Linton (Blues for an Alabama Sky, August in England) and starring the “irresistible” (London Theatre) Heather Agyepong (Faculty Women; or, The African Imply Women Play, Lyric Hammersmith) and the “great” (The Observer) Tosin Cole (BBC’s Physician Who).

Shifters is a fantastically intoxicating and relatable reminder of the enduring energy of reminiscence and younger love. A common story, stuffed with coronary heart, this love story is “straightforward itself to fall in love with” (The Instances).

DRE AND DES.
YOUNG. GIFTED. BLACK.
HE STAYED. SHE LEFT.

Years later, Des and Dre come crashing again into one another’s lives, carrying new secrets and techniques and outdated scars. With the clock counting down till Des has to go away once more, recollections of their teen years collide with their current they usually’re compelled to query if future has introduced them again collectively for a cause.

Shifters has a operating time of 100 minutes with no interval.
