Boxers are like painters, both smear their blood on the canvas. New York, 1984. Fifty-six-year-old Andy Warhols star is falling. Jean-Michel Basquiat is the new wonder-kid taking the art world by storm. When Basquiat agrees to collaborate with Warhol on a new exhibition, it soon becomes the talk of the city. As everyone awaits the greatest exhibition in the history of modern art', the two artists embark on a shared journey, both artistic and deeply personal, that re-draws both their worlds. Paul Bettany (The Avengers, Wandavision) is the iconic Warhol and Jeremy Pope (Hollywood, Choir Boy, Aint Too Proud: The Life and Times of the Temptations) plays the magnetic Basquiat in the world premiere of Anthony McCartens thrilling new drama, directed by Kwame Kwei-Armah. Show warnings This show contains themes of racism, mental illness, death, and grief. There are references to drugs and guns, as well as use of strong language and racist language. Live Streamed Performances As announced, a feature film adaptation of Anthony McCartens play is underway, which means that we will not be offering live broadcast performances of The Collaboration. We look forward to keeping our audiences updated on the future life of this story, as we are passionate about ensuring it is accessible to the widest possible audience.
