​
Roger and Harry’s bond is so strong they could be brothers. They share the same food, music, computer games and even dreams, everything other than their race.
​
Roger is black, and Harry is white…but what does that matter, right? When Roger is re-homed, Harry is left behind in the care system, and these “brothers” grow up in different cities and at opposite ends of the UK’s social spectrum.
​
Then on Harry’s birthday, Runaku (Roger’s reclaimed Ugandan birth name) returns for a dream reunion that turns into a nightmare situation.
​
Nothing’s off-limits, from innocent primary school humiliations to race, privilege, allyship and male vulnerability. HUMAN NURTURE is a play from Ryan Calais Cameron that is full of noise and a lot of dynamite.
