The Last Time I Saw Caileigh hits London’s Theaters: A compelling tale of mystery, queer identity, and accountability

Harun Cehovic, acclaimed actor and co-creator of the riveting play “The Last Time I Saw Caileigh,” announces its eagerly anticipated London premiere, following a successful run in New York. Set to hit the stages of Cockpit Theater and Barons Court Theater this June, the production promises exploration of queer erasure and unsolved mysteries.

Crafted collaboratively by Harun Cehovic, Victoria Sasso, Helen Percival, and Matthias Moret at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art in London, “The Last Time I Saw Caileigh” is a darkly humorous and heartfelt one-act play. Delving into the disappearance of Caileigh Richardson, the narrative unfolds as the closest associates recount their final encounters with Caileigh, pointing fingers at each other and at the elusive “system” in their quest for answers.

The play serves as a poignant interrogation of gender identity, accountability, and societal injustices, all interwoven with unexpected twists and introspective moments. From humorous musings on fish sex changes to profound reflections on personal truths, “The Last Time I Saw Caileigh” captivates audiences with its wit, authenticity, and unflinching exploration of the human experience.

Early reviews have praised the production as a tour de force of naturalism and new writing:

- Timothy Dodd, Professor, London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art

“A sharp piece of new writing, full of wit and integrity. Funny as it is enlightening, it feels viscerally authentic.”
