PERFORMANCE: Don’t miss The Colored Museum, a hilarious show performed by the acclaimed Talawa Theatre Company.
The Colored Museum is a satirical comedy which has delighted and discomforted audiences since it was written in America in 1986. Taking place in a cultural museum, the 11 living 'exhibits' explore African-American identity in an exhibition of stereotypes. Through characters like the pert and ever-smiling Miss Pat, airline hostess for Celebrity Slaveship, George C. Wolfe confronts history and clichés with gutsy humour.
