Black British Theatre Archive at the NT

Kwame Kwei-Armah is joined by fellow playwrights Michael Abbensetts and Winsome Pinnock to introduce the Black British Theatre Archive based at the NT Studio; a major venture, in partnership with Sustained Theatre, to archive and record extracts from every African, Caribbean and Black British play produced in the UK in the last 60 years. Alongside rehearsed readings from Weathering the Storm by Dona Daley, Skyvers by Barry Reckord, and Two Can Play by Trevor Rhone, the panel discuss the genesis of the project with Mark Lawson.

The Black British Theatre Archive is a joint partnership between the NT Studio and Sustained Theatre, and is generously supported by Arts Council England. sustainedtheatre.org.uk
