Black Panther star and Tony-nominated writer Danai Gurira's striking play explores if faith has a cost and if so, when that cost is too much.

It’s 1896 in what is modern day Zimbabwe and Jekesai, a young woman fleeing forced marriage finds herself working for devout Catholic priest, Chilford. He relishes the opportunity to mould his new convert but Jekesai's salvation has a price.

'An extraordinarily ambitious play - intense, harrowing and compelling' LA Times

The movie Black Panther was one of the most talked about films of 2018, becoming the highest-grossing solo superhero film and the ninth-highest-grossing film of all time. Now two of the stars of the film are working together again in The Convert at the Young Vic.
