A powerful production about one of the biggest moments in U.K. Black Civil Rights will be brought to the Playhouse from 3-6 April, by the U.K.’s leading black-led theatre company Eclipse.

Princess and The Hustler focuses on a family’s life during the 1963 Bristol bus boycott. Theatre company Eclipse have previously brought A Raisin in the Sun to the Playhouse in 2016.

The production is a part of Eclipse’s Revolution Mix movement, which aims to deliver new Black British productions in theatre, film and radio nationally. The movement was launched with Black Men Walking – a sell-out production that visited the Unity Theatre in 2018.
