Black Man Don't Float?

 

banner

A white yachtsman collides with an African migrant trying to reach the Canaries in a rickety home-made vessel.

They have to co-operate to survive, but are they in the same boat?

Powerful physical show and workshop, soon to set sail on an epic voyage across stages, oceans and continents.

Welcome to Sameboat Project:




martin and ayo

Sameboat Project is a not-for-profit organisation committed to using cross cultural art and performance for reconciliation, participation and community building.

Our main objective is to send a crew from Africa, the UK and the Caribbean to retrace the Atlantic Slave Triangle on a sailing boat and for that crew to transport a cargo of cultural arts and symbols gathered from theatre audiences in the UK, Europe and Africa.

Sameboat Project aims to develop an understanding of the historical roots and contemporary results of The Slave Trade using performance, art, ritual, music and water sports to commemorate and redeem the past sufferings of all races.
