Not Black and White comprises of three new plays which examine the
state of modern day Britain from the perspective of three leading
black contemporary playwrights. Roy Williams, Kwame Kwei-Armah and
Bola Agbaje tackle the prison system, the mayoralty and immigration in
their respective plays. Category B: Roy Williams Saul runs a tip-top
wing - the screws love him for it, especially Angela. Prisoners follow
his rules, and it's all gravy. But Saul's number two position is
vacant, new inmates are flooding in, so everyone's feeling the heat.
No-one wants to go to Cat B, but the world on the outside is a
different story. Seize the Day: Kwame Kwei-Armah Jeremy Charles could
be London's first black mayor. He has the face to represent it - a
well-spoken, good-looking Londoner, with an appetite for change. He's
sold his pitch on reality TV, but can he be the real people's
candidate? Detaining Justice: Bola Agbaje Justice is locked in a cold
dark cell, his asylum application pending. His sister Grace would like
to help, but has been told to leave it in God's hands. Crown
Prosecutor Mark Cole has an infallible reputation for successful
prosecutions - however he has had a change of heart - and job. His
first case is for the defence of Justice - but, in his new role, is
Cole the man to help? Published to coincide with the Not Black and
White season at the Tricycle, where the three dramas played in rep Oct
8 -Dec 19 2009.
