Creative Tourist
#NEGROPHOBIA by Jaamil Olawale Kosoko

Jaamil Olawale Kosoko: #NEGROPHOBIA at STUN Studio at Z-arts, Manchester 18 March 2017 Tickets from £7.00 — Book now

A face-off of self-revelation, ecstatic theatricality, and discomfort.

Revealing contradictory feelings of desire and fear, #negrophobia references issues related to grief, misogyny, trans identity, and Black patriarchal constructs of masculinity housed within the chaotic frame of a body and mind on the verge of psychosomatic collapse.

Post-show discussion with Prof. Thomas F. DeFrantz of Duke University, US, will follow the show reflecting on the performance of black identity and masculinity.

Age 14+

Part of SICK! Festival 2017.
