This amazing musical, wowing audiences nationwide, is coming to Bristol Beacon for Windrush Week.

Nominated for Best Musical Production at the Black Theatre Awards, this theatrical triumph celebrates the 78th anniversary of Windrush, weaving together the rich tapestry of British and Jamaican history.

Let the infectious rhythms of reggae legend John McLean, and the soul-stirring vocal arrangements of Celia Wickham-Anderson transport you through time. Backed by a masterful live band, the show traces Jamaica’s musical evolution from ska to rock-steady to reggae, creating an unforgettable soundscape.

Written and directed by Mervyn Weir, this powerful production explores identity, resistance, and resilience through a masterful blend of humour, music, and heartfelt storytelling.

After the show, there’ll be a DJ set in our Stalls Bar. More details to follow.
