Description
The Canary and the Crow is a powerful new work by writer and performer Daniel Ward. This semi-autobiographical piece combines grime, hip hop and theatre to tell the story of his journey between two worlds.
As he navigates the challenges of a prestigious school, Ward explores the struggle to find one's place in a new environment that doesn't accept him, while also confronting the limitations of an old one. The result is a lyrical and thought-provoking work that sheds light on the complexities of identity and belonging.
Winner of the 2020 George Devine Award, this gig theatre production offers a unique perspective on the experiences of a working-class black teenager. With its innovative blend of music and performance, The Canary and the Crow is a compelling and thought-provoking work that will resonate with audiences.
