Sinopse

'The way they're changing endz is nuts.'
Red Pitch. South London. Three lifelong friends Omz, Bilal and Joey are playing football. Like they always have. Living out dreams of football stardom. Beyond their football pitch, local shops are closing, old flats are being demolished as new flats shoot up, some residents struggle to stay while others rush to leave.
A coming-of-age story about what it means to belong somewhere, Tyrell Williams' fast-paced and sharp-edged play tells a powerful story about gentrification, regeneration and the impact of this relentless change on London's communities.
Red Pitch received an ecstatic critical and audience response when it was first performed at the Bush Theatre, London, in February 2022, directed by Associate Artistic Director Daniel Bailey. The production was revived at the Bush in September 2023, and transferred to @sohoplace in London's West End in March 2024.
For Red Pitch, Tyrell Williams won the Evening Standard Theatre Award and the Critics' Circle Theatre Award both for Most Promising Playwright, The Stage Debut Award for Best Writer, the George Devine Award, as well as the Off West End Award for Best New Play.
An earlier version of the play was presented in June 2019, as part of the Untold Season at Ovalhouse, London.

    Rooted in the rhythms of performance and the pulse of history, Mother Africa is a poetic exploration of identity, culture, and resistance. Through evocative verse, the collection weaves together ancestral memory, political struggle, and the enduring spirit of the African continent.
    
    Drawing from Yoruba tradition, mythology, and oral storytelling, the poems unfold as chants of defiance and songs of survival. They capture the voices of warriors, revolutionaries, and everyday people whose lives shape and are shaped by the forces of history.
    
    From the cadence of ritual to the echoes of protest, Mother Africa is both a lyrical tribute and a call to remembrance.

  • Elegies & Laments - Poetic tributes to the dead - cover

    Elegies & Laments - Poetic...

    Percy Bysshe Shelley, Thomas...

    In these more modern time perhaps our first thoughts of an Elegy or a Lament is for someone’s passing.  Wreathed in grief and death we think of a headstone on a silent grave and the memories that shelter within our hearts, slowly receding from one generation to the next, as an often lonely voice extols the virtues and traits of the one who has passed. 
     
    But these two very early forms of poetry, dating back to at least Ovid and probably further, are also surprising in their lyrical touch.  These are not just mournful and sad but also whimsical or rich with celebration and tribute as they journey through joy, laughter, love, tears and comfort. 
     
    Our Classic Poets, who have specifically chosen to include the form in the title of their work, include the likes of Percy Bysshe Shelley, Thomas Chatterton, Aphra Behn, Rainer Maria Rilke, Radclyffe Hall and many others of equal measure are always surprising in their views, their analysis and their sharing of words and thoughts, offering feelings that mirror our own and provide a balm of many hues for our wounded and tender souls.
