Produktbeschreibung

No Man or Woman should have to suffer oppression Luther.
It's your Birthright to be free, my Love.

KING tells the story of Luther, a man from Cork named in honour of his Granny Bee Baw's hero, Dr Martin Luther King Jr.. Luther only leaves his apartment for essential journeys, and to perform as an Elvis impersonator. The play explores oppression, privilege, and resilience, as Luther struggles to live life to the full.

This edition is published to coincide with the premiere production by Fishamble in February 2023. It is the fifth solo play by Pat Kinevane, following Forgotten, Silent, Underneath, and Before, which are the winners of many international awards, including the Olivier, Helen Hayes, Herald Archangel, and Scotsman Fringe Firsts.
