GOSSIP: The Scottsboro Boys transferring to the Garrick Theatre?

According to WhatsOnStage, The Scottsboro Boys could transfer to the Garrick Theatre in June. The show received its UK premiere at the Young Vic last year and is nominated for six Olivier Awards.

Scottsboro Boys tells the true story of nine young black men, aged between 12 and 19, who were falsely accused of rape by two white women while travelling on a train through Scottsboro, Alabama in the 1930s. Their subsequent trials and appeals, lasting seven years, deeply divided the nation.

WhatsOnStage have claimed that confirmation of the transfer will not be made until after the results of the Olivier Awards are announced on Sunday 13th April 2014.

Please remember nothing is yet confirmed. We will keep you updated!
