BLACK LIVES, BLACK WORDS: Part Two

Artistic Directors of the Future returns to the Bush Theatre to present Black Lives, Black Words: Part Two.

Following their sell-out event last year, Artistic Directors of the Future are back with an evening takeover of the Bush Theatre.

Join us for a TED-style talk about innovation in theatre, followed by a showcase of new work by British contemporary writers, spoken word poets, activists and musicians.

There will also be free live entertainment inspired by the Black Lives Matter campaign from 6-11pm in the library.

Please note that Innovate! Innovate! and  The Show are separate events and are ticketed individually.
