Jitney in London
‘It don’t always turn out like you think it is. You don’t always have the kind of life that you dream about. You know what I mean?’
Jim Becker and his unlicensed drivers take the people of Pittsburgh Hill District where regular taxi cabs won’t – healing old wounds and tearing new ones as they pass the time in a condemned taxi rank between pick-ups.
Directed by Tinuke Craig (The Color Purple) and following an acclaimed run at Leeds Playhouse, August Wilson’s (Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom) groundbreaking modern classic explores the fragile bond between eight men as they live, love and work in a racially segregated, post-Vietnam America. Cast includes: Geoff Aymer, Leanne Henlon, Wil Johnson, Leemore Marrett Jr and Tony Marshall.
An Old Vic, Headlong & Leeds Playhouse co-production

Review: JITNEY at The Old Vic
by Stuart King | Monday, June 20 2022, 09:39
A run-down, cheaply veneered wood-panelled office, sticks of dilapidated waiting room furniture, a gas heater and a wall mounted payphone which (when it rings), is answered “Car service” by the disparate group of constantly revolving drivers. We’re in a Pittsburgh Jitney - one of those cheap-not-legit taxi services used by the poorer spectrum of society and run by those needing to earn a few extra bucks.
