As part of Black History Month (which runs during October), the UK's leading multi-racial opera company Pegasus Opera (also my local opera company) is presenting a pair of performances of opera, musical theatre and African Song. On 13 October 2018, at Streatham Space Project, there is A Night with Pegasus Opera. Then on 23 October 2018, at the Assembly Room, Lambeth Town Hall, there is Celebrate Windrush: A Musical Voyage, with opera musical theatre and a Caribbean-inspired programme which pays tribute to the Windrush generation, and there is authentic Caribbean food afterwards!
Performers include Alison Buchanan (artistic director of Pegasus Opera), Angela Caesar, Josephine Amanjwah, Adam Music, Chike Akwarandu, Keel Watson.
