why watch an unfinished man
See how Western and West African ideologies clash as Kayode faces the fact that he has been unemployed for 7 years. While his wife suspects he is depressed, his mother firmly believes that he was cursed as a child. The only way to undo the curse is through a prayer ceremony - one which his wife thinks is bogus. Directed by Taio Lawson and written by Dipo Baruwa-Etti, known for his win in Channel 4 Playwrights’ Scheme, An Unfinished Man in a distinctive Off West End production.
