UK: It’s ★★★★ for Wedding Band at the Lyric Hammersmith Theatre
From BritishTheatre.com
The reviews are in for Wedding Band, Monique Touko’s “important, affecting revival” (Guardian) of Alice Childress’ 1966 “play that leaps through the decades to grab you by the throat” (Evening Standard).
Set in the deep south of the USA in 1918 when interracial marriage was illegal, Julia, a black seamstress, and Herman, a white baker, are defying all odds with their secret love.
With knockout performances from “an outstanding ensemble” (London Theatre) featuring Deborah Ayorinde (Amazon Prime’s Riches) and David Walmsley (Apple TV’s Slow Horses), you won’t want to miss the UK premiere of this romantic blockbuster, playing at the Lyric for four weeks only.
