Kunene And The King, A Royal Shakespeare Company co-production with The Fugard Theatre is now playing at the Ambassadors Theatre, London until 28 March.

Kunene and the King opened last week in the West End following its premiere in Stratford-upon-Avon and a sold-out run in Cape Town last year. Don’t miss your chance to catch South African actor, activist and playwright John Kani’s highly-acclaimed production, directed by Janice Honeyman, as it plays in London for a strictly limited run.

Twenty-five years since the first post-apartheid democratic elections, two men from contrasting walks of life are thrust together to reflect on a quarter century of change. Antony Sher and John Kani deliver ‘extraordinary performances’ (Daily Telegraph) as celebrated classical actor Jack Morris and his at-home nurse Lunga Kunene in this poignant and moving two-hander.
