Talking About A Revolution

The last three years have been turbulent, traumatic, and terrorising globally. So, when are we taking to the streets?

Two Black lesbians kidnap Black celebrity mogul Kevin West.
A trans woman refuses to leave the women’s changing room.
And an Incel’s cousin takes to Instagram Live.

This October, three exciting voices in British theatre today respond to the moment we find ourselves in with their own versions of revolution – unvarnished, honest and raw.

Join us for a triple bill of short plays and world premieres by Diana Nneka Atuona, babirye bukilwa and Malaika Kegode, produced by fearless British African heritage contemporary theatre company tiata fahodzi.

Content warning: includes adult themes; strong and offensive language.

Revolution: Where Do We Begin?

In this conversation, our panel will explore what it looks like to care for ourselves and each other in the revolution, what accountability looks like in the revolution and what activism looks like today.

Admission is included in tickets for Friday’s performance of Talking About a Revolution.
