Soca, Sequin, And Sisterhood

Essentially, J’Ouvert is a carnival held annually in most Caribbean islands. But those who immigrated have brought the tradition along with them to retain their legacy and to remind themselves of their roots. It is the saga of the Caribbean people’s life and struggle, and their celebration of life despite the toils they have to take on. The essence of Rebekah Murrell’s new West End play is strewn along the lines of this soulful festival, and beyond. Your J’Ouvert tickets will take you to the Carnival in Notting Hill where two best friends, Nadine and Jade are fighting for their rightful space in the world. A world that they thought they already belong to, but don’t. So, they pair up to wage a war against it; the system where they are often subject to bodily threats, mostly because they are women of colour. They stand up and build a resistance to preserve their traditions and roots. J’Ouvert is a timely reflection on the Black British experience and sexual politics, with friendship being the core of their bond. But, instead of being a grim, solemn journey, the refreshing play is adorned with the festivities of the carnival.
