Why see Je'Caryous Johnson's New Jack City?

Am I my brother's keeper?

Legendary director and theatre creator Je'Caryous Johnson is back with a brand new production. This time he's bringing a classic 90s movie to life with this made-for-stage production of New Jack City. Expect all the one-liners and thrills of the hit film but packaged up with all theatrical mastery Je'Caryous Johnson is so well known for! And of course there's the incredibly nostalgic backdrop of the film's 90s soundtrack. A must-see for fans of the original film as well as fans of Johnson's other work!

what is New Jack City about?

Nino Brown is a ruthless drug lord who has New York City under his thumb. But when two cops go under cover to try and bring him down he's put in an impossible position - and faced with an impossible choice. Will he choose loyalty and stand by his friendships or choose riches and choose to save himself? The classic film starring Wesley Snipes now gets the Je'Caryous Johnson treatment!
