Description
... Cake A psychological drama about identity, belonging and generational trauma, exploring queerness and the experience of racial prejudice and hostility. The play follows two women, Sissy and Eshe, as they navigate a complex dance of freedom and duty in a London flat on a hot April evening in 2005. As powerful emotions come to the surface, the cycle of generational trauma is laid bare. Can queer, Black femmes find love and belonging when the soil beneath them - and the climate around them - is hostile? Directed by malakaï sargeant and designed by Debbie Duru, this premiere production was performed by Danielle Kassarate and Donna Banya.
