Addressing the lack of culturally diverse stories depicted on stage, Steven Kavuma’s ‘This is Black’ Festival gives voice to four new pieces of writing, offering a platform to varied perspectives of the black experience within the UK. Taking part in the inaugural new writing event, playwright Macadie Amoroso presents ‘Blue Beneath My Skin’, a show exploring the protagonist’s struggle with her mixed raced identity, and the struggles many of us face also. Ahead of the show, Macadie tells us more about taking part in Steven Kavuma’s debut festival, her creative process and what she’s learned from creating the show.
