NINE NIGHT WINDRUSH WORKSHOP

As part of the NINE NIGHT project, senior members of the Windrush generation came to see the play Nine Night written by Natasha Gordon and directed by Emilia Teglia at Tower Theatre.

After the performance, they enjoyed a Caribbean tea and engage in a post-performance workshop talking about their own experience of Caribbean traditions.

The event was filmed by Mark Joyce and the pictures taken by Paul Grieve.
