Ncuti Gatwa reunites with Sex Education co-star in “exceptional” new show with “high-stakes” drama

Actor Ncuti Gatwa is gearing up for a reunion with his Sex Education co-star, Edward Bluemel, in an upcoming intense stage production on London’s West End.

In the upcoming film “Born With Teeth,” the actors who portrayed Eric Effiong and Sean Wiley on Netflix will be sharing the screen once more. This captivating production offers an intriguing perspective on the bond between William Shakespeare and Christopher Marlowe.

1591 serves as the backdrop for this play, where it portrays a precarious period for artists amidst an environment filled with suspicion and fear. Under these circumstances, the two renowned playwrights are compelled to collaborate in a creative partnership.

In three clandestine gatherings, adversaries engage in a tense dance of competition and flirtation as if their very existence hinged upon it. Given the omnipresence of spies, treachery becomes an alluring proposition, the narrative continues.

In a forthcoming play written by Liz Duffy Adams, scheduled to run at London’s Wyndham’s Theatre starting August 13, Mandip Gill (known for her role as Doctor Who) will play Marlowe, while Oliver Chris (Bluemel) assumes the role of Shakespeare.

I’m thrilled to be part of the cast for “Born With Teeth” alongside the talented Edward Bluemel,” Gatwa expressed. “Liz Duffy Adams has penned a remarkable play that is intelligent, edgy, sensual, witty, and humorous!

There’s plenty to sink your teeth into here. This isn’t any familiar take on Shakespeare or Marlowe, and I’m eager for everyone to embark on this journey with us.

Bluemel expressed: “I’m incredibly proud and eager to collaborate with Ncuti Gatwa and Daniel Evans on the European debut of Born With Teeth. Slipping into the role of a young William Shakespeare is an immense privilege for any performer, and I can hardly wait to dive in!

Reading Liz Duffy Adams’ script, I found myself quickly immersed in the intense, high-pressure realm of these competing playwrights, captivated by the extraordinary, sparkling creativity that ignites between them.

Liz’s writing has a genuine spark and relevance to today’s world that resonates deeply. I’m eager for West End spectators to encounter this vibrancy for the very first time.

Next week, starting April 16th, tickets for the upcoming 11-week event will go on sale. However, if you’d like to secure your seats in advance, priority booking is currently open.

Apart from his recent performance at the National Theatre in “The Importance of Being Earnest,” Gatwa has also played other stage roles during the last year.

The play “Born With Teeth” is set to run at the Wyndham’s Theatre in London for a brief, 11-week span starting from August 13. On the other hand, you can stream the show “Sex Education” on Netflix.
