Clarkston

From the writer of Oscar-winning movie The Whale, comes thrilling new West End stage drama Clarkston.

A hugely talented cast features Heartstopper star Joe Locke (Heartstopper, Agatha All Along, Sweeney Todd), with exciting new screen and stage star Ruaridh Mollica (Sebastian, The Franchise), and West End star Sophie Melville (The Way, Cowbois, Iphigenia in Splott).

The UK premiere of Clarkston is by acclaimed American writer Samuel D. Hunter (The Whale), and is directed by Drama Desk Award-winner Jack Serio.

This emotionally intimate drama is a modern frontier story that blazes a trail through friendship, acceptance, love and the hope of new discoveries.

A bit rushed, but poignant
The establishment of the relationship between Chris and Jake feels a bit rushed and could have benefitted from a bit more development during the opening scenes, but Joe and Ruaridh carried it off. Along with Sophie, their performances exposed the emotional wounds and needs of their characters well... Definitely an enjoyable experience.

Movin and soulful
It made me sad, happy, made me cry and it was real theatre. Brilliant! Joe Loke and his costar were rilliant. I will go see it again!
