About For Black Boys Who Have Considered Suicide When The Hue Gets Too Heavy

Conceived in the wake of the killing of Trayvon Martin in 2012 - this play was developed over the course of the last decade with young Black men and mental health groups. For Black Boys Who Have Considered Suicide When The Hue Gets Too Heavy focuses on six young Black men who meet for group therapy, and let their hearts - and imaginations - run wild.

The play is inspired by Ntozake Shange’s seminal work For Colored Girls Who Have Considered Suicide / When the Rainbow Is Enuf. Selling out its original run at the New Diorama Theatre, the subsequent transfer to the Royal Court Theatre, and its initial West End run at the Apollo Theatre - make sure you book your tickets to see this critically acclaimed play's return to the stage.
