Description

Few playwrights have been as successful as Kwame Kwei-Armah at

bringing a distinctive new voice and examination of our culture to the

stage in recent years. This collection of his work includes his trilogy

of plays commissioned and produced by the National Theatre between 2003

and 2008, and Let There Be Love, first produced at the Tricycle Theatre, London, in 2008.

Elmina's Kitchen won him awards for most promising new

playwright and was described as 'a scorching drama about the black

experience in Britain's inner cities. . . there is no mistaking its raw

power, humanity and urgent concern' (Daily Telegraph). Fix Up

explores race and cultural roots and heritage with verve and wit,

setting heritage against the inexorable march of time and change. Statement of Regret

explore tensions within the Black community amid changes in the team

leading an influential Black policy think-tank. The final play, Let There Be Love,

was presented at the Tricycle Theatre, London, in 2008: 'a smart and

possibly noble exploration of what it takes to be human and happy' Evening Standard .
