Blue Mountain Theatre

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Blue Mountain Theatre is a theatre company created in London in 1989 to provide theatre pieces for black British audiences.[1][2]

Influenced by the thriving theatrical community in Jamaica, the group attempted to perform pieces that would serves as a social event rather than what they viewed as traditional elitist audiences. Titles have included Betrayed, Affairs, Smallie, Forbidden Love, Confessions of a Black Woman and more recently Wicked Bitches and Dutty Wine.
