Hang

Provocative, touching, darkly humorous... its understated power is remarkable

THE PROVACATIVE PLAYWRIGHT RETURNS
Olivier-winning playwright Debbie Tucker Green returns with a brand-new work, following her hit 2013 play Nut. Details about the plot are shrouded in a certain amount of secrecy, but what we can tell you is that it focuses on a crime and the stark consequences that follows as a result. There is a crime, a victim and of course, the perpetrator; and a devastating but unavoidable choice that must be made to ensure that justice is served. With the possible abolishment of the Human Rights Act on its way, this play's timing could not be more poignant or timely.
Starring Marianne Jean-Baptiste in her Royal Court debut, following her star turn on Broadchurch, and in 1996 movie Secrets and Lies, which garnered her an Oscar nomination for Best Supporting Actress.
Hang explores a possible future in which the victim of a crime is the final arbiter of the sentence, rather than the justice system. A must-see for students of law and our criminal justice system.
