Q&A with Tobi Kveremateng
3 July
BAFTA-winning Producer Tobi Kyeremateng will host an exclusive post-show Q&A with the company of School Girls; Or, The African Mean Girls Play to talk about Black Joy and the creative process behind this ground breaking play.
Black Out Night
19 June | 7.30pm
This performance will include a post-show Q&A with the company. We believe it is important to curate a space that diminishes any barriers some Black audiences may feel when coming to the theatre. This night specifically will celebrate Black Joy and is an opportunity for Black audiences to come together in a shared space and experience the show.
