About The Real Ones

A funny and honest love letter to platonic soulmates from the team behind Olivier Award winner The P Word. Stars Nathaniel Curtis (It’s A Sin) and Olivier nominee Nnabiko Ejimofor (For Black Boys).

“I love you. Like genuinely I love you. You’re a real one.”

Best friends Zaid and Neelam shared a dream: get away, make it as playwrights, build a future where they’re free to be themselves. Together, always.

Years later, things are far from what they expected. Zaid’s life has kinda stalled – half out the closet, living at home and still chasing the dream. While Neelam’s has taken a completely different path, as she chooses to prioritise her own happiness.

As their lives pull further apart and a mess of things left unsaid hangs between them, it becomes less and less clear if they’ll ever find a way back to each other.

Star of Russell T Davies’ powerful Channel 4 series It’s A Sin, Nathaniel Curtis plays Zaid alongside Mariam Haque (Plebs, Black Mirror) as Neelam. They are joined by Nnabiko Ejimofor (Jitney, Old Vic) and Anthony Howell (Luther).
