Colman Domingo has said : “I am delighted with the incredible response Retrograde has so far received in the West End and excited to able to have a Q&A in order to continue the discussion beyond this 90-minute thriller off-stage with Ryan Calais Cameron. It is going to be enriching and inspiring and I cannot wait to engage with the audience.”
