Red Pitch

Red Pitch, praised by critics as a “remarkable, next-level coming-of-age story” by renowned writer Tyrell Williams, is moving to London’s newest West End theatre, @sohoplace, after two sold-out, award-winning runs at the Bush Theatre.

Kedar Williams-Stirling (Sex Education), Emeka Sesay (The Power), and Francis Lovehall (Small Axe) feature in the award-winning production directed by Daniel Bailey. The play explores themes of brotherhood, ambition, girls, community, and the essence of belonging, described as an “energetic, artfully staged production” by the Evening Standard.

Red Pitch has swept all 5 Major Best Debut Play awards, setting a new standard in theatre.
