Experience the powerful and transformative journey as "For Black Boys Who Have Considered Suicide When The Hue Gets Too Heavy" makes its triumphant return to London's West End in 2024, following three previously sold-out runs.

'I found a king in me and now I love you I found a king in you and now I love me'

Delve into the complexities of father figures, fashion wisdom, lost loves, and the savory notes of jollof rice. Traverse African empires and navigate through moments of illicit passion. Amidst the ebb and flow of good days and bad, six young Black men gather for group therapy, unleashing their hearts and imaginations in a soul-stirring exploration.

Inspired by Ntozake Shange's 'For Colored Girls Who Have Considered Suicide / When the Rainbow Is Enuf,' "For Black Boys..." inhabits a space between joyful fantasy and harsh reality—a world where music, movement, storytelling, and verse converge. Witness the clash and connection of six men as they grapple in a desperate bid for survival.

Hailed as 'a powerful and deeply moving meditation on Black masculinity and Black life in Britain' by The Guardian, Ryan Calais Cameron's Olivier-Award nominated, multi-award-winning production returns to the West End after captivating audiences at the Apollo Theatre, Royal Court Theatre, and New Diorama Theatre. Don't miss this limited 9-week run at the Garrick Theatre, where the profound exploration of identity, resilience, and brotherhood takes center stage once again.
