I Know It Was The Blood - Camden Fringe 2019
The Totally True Adventures of a Newfangled Black Woman
The London Irish Centre
Theatre
After racking up wins on its U.S. Tour, "I Know It Was The Blood: The Totally
True Adventures of a Newfangled Black Woman" makes its U.K. Premiere!
Actress, soprano, and storyteller Tara Lake takes audiences on a journey
into the world of African-American Jersey girlhood in the 1980s-1990s -- a
world steeped in family Sundays, church conventions, and extravagant
reunions, weddings, and funerals. In a story of triumph tinged with bits
of heartache, a scrappy girl-child navigates a changing world and finds
the courage to live life on her own terms. It's an unforgettable sojourn
embracing southern roots, gospel rhythms, and queer identity, in which one
family's love conquers all. Join us for a compelling performance of
soul-rich theatre, storytelling, song, and poetry! Suitable for ages
13+.*U.K. Premiere *Artists' Choice Award, Chicago Fringe
