UK premiere of the Tony Award-nominated Best Play



In 2008 Detroit, one of the city’s last surviving car factories is

threatened with closure. A tight-knit group of workers face crushing economic reality. Torn between loyalty to each other and their own self-interest, can they hang on to their dreams, to their ambitions, to hope?



Detroit-born playwright Dominique Morisseau’s masterful feeling for voice and character brings depth and authenticity to a story about the human effects of a global financial crisis. A Tony Award-winning hit on Broadway in 2022, Olivier Award-winner Matthew Xia directs its UK premiere production.



The cast is Tobi Bamtefa (Mayor of Kingstown), Branden Cook (Masters of the Air, Chicago PD), Oliver Award nominee Pamela Nomvete (To Kill a Mockingbird, West End, Andor, Gangs of London) and Racheal Ofori (Artemis Fowl, Ready Player One).
