Shifters (NHB Modern Plays)

Dre and Des. Dream and Destiny.
Young. Gifted. Black.
He stayed. She left.
Now, tragedy brings them crashing back into each other's lives — carrying new secrets and old scars that threaten to rewrite the past and reshape the future.
Benedict Lombe's play Shifters is a fierce, funny and intoxicating romance about the enduring power — and fragility — of memory and love. It was first performed at the Bush Theatre, London, in 2024, directed by Artistic Director Lynette Linton.
