How do you deal with an inherited history that is full of complexity? Theatre maker Ogutu Muraya reimagines James Baldwin's Princes and Powers, an essay which describes in great detail a congress of Afro-intellectuals, writers, artists, philosophers and theorists, at the Sorbonne in Paris in 1956. Weaving together literary text, video and storytelling, the performance embraces a multiplicity of perspectives, historical archive materials and personal experience. Examining the legacy of the congress, the performance shifts perspectives, seeking a new vocabulary for dealing with uncomfortable truths.| 16 Mar 17 to 17 Mar 17 | Home Theatre Manchester, Greater Manchester Performance Details => Venue archive |
