About the show:

This community engagement event immerses you in film, interactivity, debate and includes improvisation. With a fantastic cast of performers, this interactive performance takes you into dimensions you have never seen before.

The Black Men’s Consortium is a community-led exploration arts project in which Black men of African Descent meet to experience positive and meaningful interactions and discuss issues that matter to them.  

Through opportunities to express oneself, speak, learn and empower themselves creatively by using and mixing politics with art in order to make performances which are rooted in the group members’ experiences. 

The Black Men’s Consortium is a weekly creative space for Black men where differences of opinion and unspoken feelings and resentments can be safely voiced and shared. The group works together every Monday evening to creatively cement long term relationships which lead to shared activities. This is our first production in a professional  theater.
