Flipping the Script is your chance to hear a few of the thousands of different voices that make up the Black British experience.
The series features some of the rich abundance of plays reaching Talawa. These are the plays that we write about ourselves, not the plays people write about us.

Flipping the Script brings you some of the best untold stories of Black Britain. Come along and listen.


8th September, 7pm
White Paper by Stevie Amuzu

A mother or monster whose desperate search for her biological parents brings the sins of the past to her mixed race children. An intensely funny and gut wrenching piece.


8th October, 7pm
Mr. Atlantic by Atiha Sen-Gupta; excerpts from Rigged by Robert Hutchinson; Dice by Harold Kimmel

From Cuba to Catford, three surreal short stories that combine comedy with migration and the search for celebrity.


12th November, 7pm
Maybe Father by Charlene James

A young couple, and most of their friends, deal with the turbulent consequences of an unexpected pregnancy in this sharply observed and entertaining story.
