KING HEDLEY II
britishblacklist:
King Hedley II - 88% Out Of 100.
Written by revered African American playwright, August Wilson, King Hedley II is 9th in his 10-part series, The Pittsburgh Cycle. It tells the story of an ex-con in Pittsburgh trying to rebuild his life after spending seven years in jail for killing the man who slashed and scarred his face. Starring Cherrelle Skeete, Aaron Pierre, Martina Laird and Sir Lenny Henry, TBB's @adele_oni says - "The beauty of this show lies in its simplicity. It is a story about the human condition. Nadia Fall kept it honest to its core and so kept us hooked entirely."

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.

“It’s a role that rivals any Loman or Proctor and one that Pierre crushes cementing himself as one of British theatre’s brightest lights. He is mesmerising and menacing with a wide grin that can just as quickly turn into a stony glare.” The Upcoming All Hail the King! Aaron Pierre (@aaron_pierre1) stars in King Hedley II.
