About the Show

The revival of Barrie Keeffe's drama exploring the historical police brutality experienced by the black community.

It's 1979, and Delroy, a young black father, believes he has been brought into a South London Police Station as a SUS - suspect under suspicion.

Unbeknownst to him, two white male police detectives are tasked with drawing a confession from Delroy for an unspeakable crime. He is subjected to horrific abuse and faces the reality of an institution teeming with racism, misogyny, corruption, and violence.

This production is recommended for ages 16+.
