You are every bit a part of this…
conundrum as I am.
Growing up, Fidel’s mum always told him he was a genius. Her genius child who was going to be a doctor. But his teachers had other ideas, and years later Fidel is left trying to piece together where it all went wrong.
Written and directed by Paul Anthony Morris, Conundrum is an evocative drama about one man’s journey to self-acceptance in a world that rejects him. Anthony Ofoegbu (Barber Shop Chronicles) plays Fidel in this new play from Young Vic associate company Crying in the Wilderness.
