Coming soon to the Main Stage...

A Hampstead Downstairs production

.45

By Gary Lennon, directed by Wilson Milam

3 - 27 November 2010

Machine guns. Bullets. .45s. Hot guns. Coke vials… I want romance.

Overview

Hell’s Kitchen, Summer ‘77, Heatwave... Pat is Ed’s girl. He deals guns so she can live the American dream. And Ed wants more. Only problem is... Pat wants out...

Gary Lennon is an American stage and screen writer with television credits including the cult seriesThe Shield, The Unusuals and Justified. This is the first time one of his plays has been produced in the UK. Shot through with autobiographical details of his life growing up in New York’s Hell’s Kitchen, his work is shocking and compelling.

Wilson Milam, a fellow American, has divided his time between America and the UK since coming over to Edinburgh and London with the original production of Killer Joe in the mid-nineties. He received a Tony Award nomination in 2006 forThe Lieutenant of Inishmore on Broadway, which also played in London’s West End. Other recent work in the UK includes Harvest (Royal Court) and Othello (Shakespeare's Globe).
