Klappentext

Storytelling and performance have been at the centre of Black traditions for as long as Black existence. From griots and underground raves, to protests and defiant speeches, Black performance translates across time, space and memory. In the UK, a growing genre of contemporary Black British theatre takes shape as a powerful hub of imagination and creativity, which inspires Tobi Kyeremateng to ask: What is theatre in the context of Black expression?
Combining elements of history, personal anecdotes and interviews, alongside layers of poetry and photography, A Quick Ting On: THEATRE SH*T - Reimagining Black British Theatre explores the modern age of Black British theatre, dissecting and recontextualizing what we know it to be.
