King LeBron Jamess reign in Cleveland brings promise, prosperity and renewal to a city in desperate need of all three. It also brings together two unlikely friends in a bond forged by fandom. Told over twelve years (from LeBron's rookie season to an NBA Championship) King James is an intimate exploration of the place that sports occupy in our lives and relationships. Ensemble member Rajiv Joseph's clever and fast-paced comedy traces the arcs of two friends whose turbulent relationship is best navigated through their shared love of basketballand the endless amiable arguments that erupt from that love. All the while, the promise and burden of LeBron's talent and legacy loom large.Help us spread the word about King James! Use #kingjamesSTC on social media to join the conversation.King James is co-commissioned and co-produced by Steppenwolf Theatre Company and Center Theatre Group.
