A bold, genre-mixing revenge tale
Aleshea Harris’ award-winning revenge play makes its UK premiere. Mixing genres and styles, this compelling story of vengeance and sisterhood runs at the Royal Court Theatre.21 year old twins Racine and Anaia journey from the Dirty South to the Californian desert after receiving a letter from their presumed-dead mother. Arriving at a yellow house with teal shutters, they’re determined to avenge her past.
Aleshea Harris’ acclaimed play is a compelling and unique cross-genre piece, mixing the fury of mythological revenge narratives with Afropunk, Spaghetti Western and hip-hop. It won the 2018 Obie Awards for Playwriting, Directing and Performance after a season at New York’s Soho Rep, and in London is directed by Royal Court Associate Ola Ince.
