Synopses & Reviews
Destined to become the next indie hit, Mojo is set in the sleazy world of London's Soho in the 1950s.
A rising pop star is kidnapped, and his manager is murdered and dismembered. The manager's son and cronies are consumed with anger and anxiety in this story of betrayal and murder, told with lightning energy and verbal dexterity.
When Mojo premiered on the London stage as a play, Jez Butterworth was instantly recognized as a major new talent with an ear for the language of desperate conversation on par with David Mamet and Quentin Tarantino. Now adapted by the author for the screen, Jez Butterworth also directs this independent debut.
