About The Show

This ground-breaking play is a provocative tale of love, victimisation, fantasy and the friendship that develops between two strikingly different men imprisoned together in a Latin American jail.

Samuel Barnett plays Molina. Theatre includes: The History Boys (National Theatre / Broadway – original cast; Tony nomination for Best Featured Actor in a Play), the Tony-award-winning productions of Twelfth Night and Richard III (Globe / West End / Broadway) and the Olivier-nominated Dealer’s Choice (Chocolate Factory and Trafalgar Studios). Television includes the title role in the major Netflix series Dirk Gently’s Holistic Detective Agency, and films include The History Boys.
