The inaugural Interational Diaspora Arts Festival seeks to start the process of building a new legacy of the African Diaspora by viewing its social issues, its journeys to freedom and its quests for affirmation through the eyes, bodies and music of some its most celebrated griots. They will tell their stories in song, music, dance, poetry and film. They will share their resolve, their ideas and their solutions in meeting contemporary challenges facing our society.

Starring Shawn Green and Karlos Cobham
This play served as the bomb with which black South Africans blew apart the institution of Apartheid. It is a moving and immensely funny expose of life in a country in which the only way a black man could survive was to take on the identity of a dead man.
Viewer discretion is advised
Tickets $25.00 for Adults; $15.00 for BCC, SJPP & UWI students with ID

The play was written and performed by Victor Richards. The play is set in the present, but explores recent history from the 1950’s onwards. In his one man show, Victor Richards explores African-Caribbean migration, and themes of hope, identity and change. The story line of “Streets Paved with Gold” weaves together a thrilling and informative picture of the collective experiences of Black British Citizens resulting from their new surroundings.
