The Harder They Come in London
Based on the cult classic Jamaican crime thriller that brought reggae to the world, The Harder They Come is the story of aspiring singer Ivan, who arrives in Kingston, Jamaica seeking to achieve his dreams of becoming a music superstar. But when he cuts a record deal with a manipulative music mogul, he quickly learns that the game is rigged and the system is stacked against him. As his fame grows, he finds himself topping the charts and the most-wanted list of criminals.
If you loved the 1972 cult classic directed by Perry Henzell, here's your chance to re-experience it in a brand new way onstage for the first time, with all the twists and turns of the murky criminal underworld of Kingston, set to a score of incredible, catchy reggae music. Step into 1970s Jamaica, into a dark and thrilling world of music and crime, where fighting systemic injustice comes at a great personal cost. Featuring a sensational soundtrack with many of Jimmy Cliff's hits, such as "You Can Get It If You Really Want" and "Many Rivers to Cross", the UK premiere of this blazing show has been adapted for the stage by Tony Award and Pulitzer Prize winner Suzan-Lori Parks (Topdog/Underdog, The Gershwins' Porgy and Bess) and directed by Olivier Award-winner Matthew Xia (Tambo & Bones, Skeleton Crew).
Get ready to relive the thrills of this classic film, with a story of injustice and violence that celebrates Jamaican culture and reggae music.
