Smash-hit, multi award-winning play Red Pitch by Tyrell Williams is now playing in the West End.
The show has transferred from the sell-out runs in Edinburgh and at the Bush Theatre, and is now playing at @sohoplace theatre in London until 4 May 2024.
This fast-paced and sharp-edged play tells a powerful story of gentrification versus regeneration and the impact of this relentless change on London’s communities.

The acclaimed cast includes Kedar Williams-Stirling (Sex Education), Emeka Sesay (The Power) and Francis Lovehall (A Thousand Blows), playing the three football-obsessed teens.
