Bush Theatre's RED PITCH transfers to @sohoplace

The Bush Theatre’s hit play Red Pitch will transfer to @sohoplace in the West End for a limited run from 15 March-4 May 2024, it has been announced.

Directed by Daniel Bailey, the original cast return in the award-winning play about brotherhood, ambition, girls, community, and what it really means to belong: Kedar Williams-Stirling (Sex Education), Emeka Sesay (The Power) and Francis Lovehall (Small Axe).

What happens when your football pitch, a place you’ve laughed, fought, and forged friendships - the very existence of your closeknit community - is threatened by impending demolition? Can lifelong friends continue to dream of stardom, or will their goals be torn down alongside their home?​

Artistic Director of Bush Theatre, Lynette Linton, said: “Developing new writing and is central to what we do at the Bush Theatre and Tyrell's Red Pitch is an example of which we are very proud. A beautiful story of three young Black men, dealing with what life throws at them via their deeply rooted friendship based on playing football. It was a massive success at the Bush both with audiences and critics, and following two sold-out runs at our home in West London, I and the Bush team are so excited to introduce the show to a wider West End audience and firmly establish Red Pitch in the theatrical canon. Come we go!”
