Soho Theatre will premiere new play "Typical", created alongside award-winning creative movement Nouveau Riche, next month. The piece explores racism and how British society stereotypes Black masculinity. Written by award-winning playwright Ryan Calais Cameron and directed by Anastasia Osei-Kuffour, it follows the tragic true-life events of Black British ex-serviceman Christopher Alder and the injustice that still remains twenty years since his story emerged. Cameron says: “Typical is the story of a Black man, who in the comfort of his home is just a man, but as he leaves, he must navigate through society’s ideas and prejudices about what it means to be Black. Typical is a slice of our history, that I hope gives insight, education and desire for a better future.” Hollyoaks regular and former EastEnders star Richard Blackwood takes on the role he played in the original stage version.
