Now Playing: King James
By Rajiv Joseph
Directed by Michael Stevenson
June 25 – July 27, 2025
Sacramento Premiere

What happens when basketball becomes more than just a game?

Set over twelve years during LeBron James’s time with the Cleveland Cavaliers, King James is a sharp, heartfelt comedy that explores the unlikely friendship between two fans—Shawn and Matt—united (and often divided) by their shared love of the game. As their bond evolves alongside LeBron’s career, their story becomes a moving reflection on loyalty, identity, and how sports shape our relationships.

Whether you’re a die-hard basketball fan or just love a smart, funny story about friendship, King James is a must-see.

“One of the funniest and most moving plays about friendship in years.”
– TheaterMania
