No Strings Attached

The King's Head Theatre in Islington, North London have announced today their upcoming world premiere of No Strings Attached by Charles Entsie. Originally programmed for summer 2020, this electric two-hander will mark a return to live performances for the London venue after more than a year in the dark. No Strings Attached also obtained the King’s Head Theatre’s Adrian Pagan Award, which recognises unconventional routes into writing for the stage and provides a platform for exceptional new artists.

This production will be staged at a site-specific location within the Islington Square development, not far from the current space that King’s Head Theatre works from. This will be the theatre’s planned future home, offering audiences an exciting immersive experience in the heart of the UK. 

Directed by Aileen Gonsalves, this intense, powerful and startlingly original drama takes place within the charged confines of a car at midnight. A clandestine encounter between Boy (Shak Benjamin) and Man (Razak Osman) exposes the reality of living your life in the closet in working class London, and the lengths men will go to to keep their secrets hidden.
