Noughts & Crosses

Step into a world where the rules of society are flipped on their head and everything you thought you knew is challenged. Noughts and Crosses, adapted for the stage by Dominic Cooke, takes Malorie Blackman’s renowned novel and turns it into a gripping play that explores racism, privilege, and a love that defies the boundaries of society.

Sephy, a privileged Cross, is the daughter of the black Deputy Prime Minister, while Callum, a Nought, is the son of a white political rebel. Their shared sense of injustice brings them together, but they are separated by the ingrained prejudice that defines their world. As their bond grows deeper, they must navigate a society that is determined to keep them apart, shedding light on the harsh realities of power and inequality.

In collaboration with Utopia Theatre, this production brings together diverse voices and perspectives, breathing new life into this urgent story. With powerful performances and a narrative that speaks to our times, Noughts and Crosses is a play that will make you think, feel, and question long after the final scene.
