Bøger af Natasha Gordon

When Gloria passes away it falls to her British-born children to host the traditional Jamaican Nine Night celebration. Family and friends familiar and unfamiliar arrive to celebrate the life of the woman who connects them all and deal with unfinished business along the way. Nine Night is at once moving and raucously funny. Gordon paints the rituals of grief the tensions of family and the complexities of identity with an acute eye and razor-sharp wit.

This anthology brings together six plays, all written or performed since 2017, by six brilliant Black British writers - Travis Alabanza, Firdos Ali, Natasha Gordon, debbie tucker green, Arinze Kene and Chinonyerem Odimba. The plays explore themes including politics and protest, grief and colonisation, relationships and gender.

Nine nights of music, food, sharing stories - and an endless parade of mourners. Natasha Gordon's debut play Nine Night is a touching and very funny exploration of the rituals of family. It premiered at the National Theatre in April 2018.
