"On a journey West to rediscover himself, Jake (Locke) unexpectedly meets Chris (Mollica) - a kindred soul hiding in a night shift at a Costco in a rural American town. As their bond deepens, so does their sense of adventure. Maybe they could finally give life new meaning by chasing something more - like the intrepid explorers Lewis and Clark before them."
"First look images have been released showing Heartstopper's Joe Locke in preparation for his West End debut in the play, Clarkston. Locke, who became a household name with the Netflix adaptation of Alice Oseman's web-comic has also starred in Marvel's Agatha All Along, as well as having a stint on Broadway in Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street. He also had a role in The Trials at the Donmar Warehouse in 2022."
"When Locke was announced in the cast in July, the 21-year-old actor said he was "thrilled" to join the production. "Samuel D. Hunter's writing is so deeply human and honest that I immediately connected with the play when I read it. I can't wait to bring this beautiful story to life and share it with audiences in London," he also said."
