‘Remember, Agatha, a good hostess is not distracted by anything….not even if there is a pistol shot or hurricane outside the front door.’
An explosive and outrageous satire on imperialism, cross racial adoption, cultural appropriation and tea set over two time periods.
Brighton, 1862, in a day in the life of Sarah, an African girl, adopted by Queen Victoria and raised in the Queen’s circles.
The Present. A day in the life of Sarah, a black middle-class woman living in a Cheshire village with her husband and small child.
Janice Okoh’s play connects 19th century and present day Britain in a ‘bold exploration of black Britishness that is as agonising as it is funny’ (The Metro).
