The Windrush Secret
This event is in the past
A one-man drama by Rodreguez King-Dorset.
The Windrush Secret, set in 2018, is about a young white far-right racist party leader, a black Caribbean diplomat and a white Oxford educated Home Office government official who are giving speeches on the same day, at different times, in separate locations about a million people who migrated from the Caribbean to Britain between 1948 and 1973 (The Windrush Generation), and the British political scandal which began in 2018.
One of them has a dark secret that he struggles to come to terms with during his fiery speech – it will change his life forever!
