Is God Is
Royal Court Theatre
ALESHEA Harris’s award winning play opened to rave reviews in New York in 2018 and now explodes on to the stage at the Royal Court with Ola Ince’s taut, visceral production.
Black twin sisters Racine and Anaia emerge from nowhere, scarred and on a mission to avenge their mother who as far as they are concerned has risen from the dead and understandably wants revenge on her former husband.
Their blood-spattered quest takes them to the mountains of California in an attempt to trace their father, now living a respectable middle-class married life with a disenchanted wife and a new set of twins.
