Misty by Arinz Kene
An inventive blend of gig theatre, spoken word, live art and direct address, exploring the pulsating heart and underground soul of inner-city London.'The hot topics of race and cultural stereotyping fizz and dart about this lively and innovative piece of work… surely destined to be a big popular hit'
* Evening Standard *'Kene has a poetic gift and a powerful presence… his form of performance poetry is at its most vivid in his vision of modern London with its loft extensions, pavement traffic jams and yummy mummies creating "pramageddon"'
* Guardian *'Brilliantly conceived.. an articulate critique of humanity's internal intolerances, as the audience is entangled into a two-hour reflection on their own preconceived perceptions of others'
* Broadway World *'Inventive, subversive, slightly surreal… it's bracing to see the question of who gets to tell stories – and how they might be circumscribed – tackled head-on here, with wit, exuberance and visual flair'
* Time Out *'Pulsing and potent… at once a polemic, an essay and a poem'
* The Stage *'Cuts to the heart of a pressing cultural debate… as fiercely thought as it is elegantly structured'
* WhatsOnStage *'Witty, hard-hitting… a powerful meditation on how we tell stories and a raw, beautiful Odyssey through the heart of London'
* The Arts Desk *Arinzé Kene is an actor and writer. His other work includes good dog, God’s Property, Little Baby Jesus and Estate Walls, and feature films Seekers and Cure.
