Shifters has taken the West End by storm, with The Independent hailing it as “an epic new romcom that has West End audiences swooning,” and the Daily Mail declaring, “Shifters is a hit.”
Written by award-winning Benedict Lombe and directed by the award-winning Lynette Linton, Shifters is a beautifully intoxicating tale of love, memory, and second chances.
Heather Agyepong and Tosin Cole deliver performances that are nothing short of “irresistible” (London Theatre) and “tremendous” (The Observer).
Shifters is backed by powerhouse producers Idris Elba, Maya Jama, and Little Simz, adding to the excitement and making it one of the most talked-about shows of the year.
Des and Dre. Young. Gifted. Black. He stayed. She left.
Now, years later, they’re reunited, and sparks fly as they confront old wounds and new secrets. With the clock ticking, will destiny give them a second chance?
Now playing at the Duke of York’s Theatre for a strictly limited run until 12 October, Shifters is “easy itself to fall in love with” (The Times).
Book your tickets now and get ready to join the chorus of fans who say, “I could watch the play on repeat!” (Afridiziak).
Shifters has a running time of 100 minutes, with no interval.
