'The first thing you should know is that this is true. It's what actually happened. I know it seems like it's a story – inside of a story – inside of a story – but that's how it is for most people. At least the ones in here.' Nick's got a story to tell you. About how a routine traffic stop turned into a conviction for murder. About how he spent the next twenty-two years on Death Row. About how he finally petitioned the court, seeking not an appeal, but for his execution date. And about what happened next… Based on the extraordinary true story of Nick Yarris – and on David Sington's documentary film about him – Lindsey Ferrentino's play The Fear of 13 was first performed at the Donmar Warehouse, London, in 2024, directed by Justin Martin and starring Adrien Brody. This edition of the play contains an exclusive afterword by Nick Yarris about what he learned living on Death Row for over two decades. 'Lindsey Ferrentino writes with a moral conscience second to none among her generation of playwrights' - Variety 'A brave playwright… a writer of dauntless conviction whose unflinching portraits are hard to come by outside of journalism' - The New York Times 'Devastating… a wrenching portrait of death row injustice… shards of jagged humour mingle with moments of farce but also exquisite intimacy… unmissable' - Telegraph 'Belongs in a league of its own… Ferrentino has turned a solo narrative into a richer ensemble piece… contains a hint of the miraculous' - The Times 'Incredibly powerful scenes' - Guardian 'Astounding… prises apart the justice system through the shocking reality of a haunting lived experience… Ferrentino's script gallops with innovative charm… one of the best new plays of the year… a thrilling premiere' - WhatsOnStage
