THE BLACK ALBUM opens at the National Theatre

Hanif Kureishi's stage adaptation of his acclaimed 1995 novel, THE BLACK ALBUM openned at the National Theatre last week, a co-production with TARA Arts.




"The flawless cast do Kureishi's funny script and excellent characterisation proud" London Lite

"A long-over due look at a very urgent issue" Daily Telegraph

Hanif Kureishi’s 1995 novel is ripe for a revisit’ Metro

daring and funny’ BBC Front Row

'Jonathan Bonnici has the right uncertainty as the confused Shahid and there is much staunch support from Robert Mountford as his Thatcherite brother, Shereen Martineau as his glamorous sister-in-law, Tanya Franks as the randy lecturer and Alexander Andreou as the adamantine Riaz.' The Guardian

I'd very much like to encourage your views on the production and the subject of the play if you've seen it at the National Theatre or as part of the nationwide tour this autumn. Post your comments below. www.tara-arts.com
