Soho Theatre has announced details of its programme line-up for January to April 2008, which includes the UK premiere run of the Belarus Free Theatre’s Being Harold Pinter and Generation Jeans.

The two shows from the Belarussian company, banned in its own country for presenting uncensored performances, will run from February 11-23.

The season will also include a revival of Tanika Gupta’s White Boy, which will kick off on January 16, and a debut play - A Couple of Poor, Polish-Speaking Romanians - by young Polish writer Dorota Maslowska.

Playwright Wajdi Mouawad will make his UK debut with Wedding Day at the Cro-Magnons from April 1-19, and Tiger Lillies: The 7 Deadly Sins will play in the same month.

Meanwhile, Suspect Culture and Greae Theatre Company’s production Static - a fusion of music, sign-language and audio description - will complete the venue’s first quarter.
