King Hedley II
em Theatre Royal Stratford East
1980’s Pittsburgh, a city in decay. Against the backdrop of Reagan’s America, King, an ex-con, is trying to rebuild his life and start a family. He’s got hopes and dreams of opening a video store and building a new life. If only he can get ten thousand dollars together, if only he can catch a break. In his dusty backyard he plots and plans with his friend Mister, but is this all a pipe dream? Featuring Lenny Henry as smooth-talking hustler Elmore, August Wilson’s touching and angry King Hedley II is a quest for redemption for one man and a whole community.

Time Out ★★★★ Superb cast… Fall’s vigorous yet sensitive interpretation achieves a gritty kind of grandeur' Evening Standard ★★★★ 'An electric surge of rage... staggering' The Stage ★★★★ 'Pulses with humanity. Fall's staging is full of beautifully detailed performances.' Financial Times ★★★★ 'Beautifully executed... brilliant monologues that hit you in the gut.' The Times ★★★★ 'A superb revival... authentic... transfixing.' The Telegraph ★★★★
