It has been announced that the late Academy Award-nominated actor and writer Chadwick Boseman’s Deep Azure is now being extended to the 2nd May at the Sam Wanamaker Playhouse.
Directed by Tristan Fynn-Aiduenu (For Black Boys Who Have Considered Suicide When The Hue Gets Too Heavy, New Diorama/Royal Court/Apollo) in his Globe directorial debut, the production stars: Ryn Alleyne as Ensemble/Cover, Maxwell Chartey as Ensemble/Cover, Elijah Cook as Tone, Jayden Elijah as Deep, Aminita Francis as SK Good, Selina Jones as Azure, Justice Ritchie as Roshad, and Imani Yahshua as SK Evil.
