Black Super Hero @ Royal Court Theatre (until 29 April)

Polyamorists. Theyre like the billionaires of romance. Most of us cant get one boyfriend, they get several David is in love with King but who isnt? Kings a Superhero. King is In. His. Prime. Danny Lee Wynters debut play is a superbly funny, thought-provoking and sexy tale of unrequited love. After an unexpected encounter, David plunges himself into a world of sex, drugs and hero worship in the hope of being rescued, and you know that his mates have an opinion (or five) about it. Directed by Daniel Evans, BLACK SUPERHERO is a long overdue depiction of the Black, queer experience and sees Wynter firmly establishing himself as an exciting new voice to watch out for. It is with deep regret we have to announce that due to personal circumstances, Danny Lee Wynter has taken the difficult decision to withdraw from performing the role of David in BLACK SUPERHERO. The role of David will now be played by Lewis Brown.
