About the show

Dre and Des. Young, gifted and black. He stayed, she left.

  • Years later, Dre and Des meet again, their lives crashing back together carrying new secrets and old scars. The clock counts down on them until Des has to leave again, but the memories of their teenage years together collide with their present. Has destiny brought them back for a reason?
  • Opening at the Duke of York’s Theatre 10 August - 1 October for a strictly limited 9 week run
  • Starring Tosin Cole (BBC’s Doctor Who) and Heather Agyepong (School Girls; or, The African Mean Girls Play
  • Shifters is both beautifully intoxicating and relatable reminder of the enduring power of memory and young love. A universal story, full of heart, it is “laugh out loud funny and tears-to-the-eyes moving” (The Times).
