What is Deep Azure about?

When Azure’s fiancé, Deep, is fatally shot by police, their life is shattered in an instant — and grief becomes a battleground.

Held together by the spiritual imprint Deep leaves behind, Azure and their closest friends, Roshad and Tone, struggle to survive the aftermath and search for healing. But their journey is disrupted by the Heavenly MCs of Street Knowledge, who challenge them to confront injustice, memory, and resistance head-on.

Inspired by the real-life killing of university student Prince Jones, infused with the poetry of Shakespeare, and driven by the raw energy of hip-hop theatre, Boseman’s powerful and lyrical epic transforms the Sam Wanamaker Playhouse into a space of reckoning, ritual, and radical storytelling.
