★★★★“The trio are a delight, their onstage chemistry utterly striking… a truly affirming watch” – FestMag

★★★★“Full of energy and brightness… A thought-provoking, energetic hour” – Musical Theatre Reviews

Produced by Nouveau Riche and written by Nicole Acquah, CASTE-ING explores the experiences of three black actresses using beatboxing, rap, song and spoken word.

CASTE-ING is an entertaining and rhythmic showcase of the realities, structures and pressures of the acting industry, and how black women navigate these situations. Watch them as they attempt to maintain their sense of self, their faith, friendships and of course, careers.

How can they remain true to their values in an industry seemingly intent on pitting them against each other? What do they do when the pressures become too much?

Following a successful run at this year’s Edinburgh Fringe, Nouveau Riche bring CASTE-ING to Shoreditch Town Hall for three performances only.

“A sharp satiric edge… and a terrific beat-boxing section” – Lyn Gardner
