Some stereotypes have an element of truth.
A presented set of rules but in the end you get to choose.
What happens if you're not Black enough for the ends, but too Black for the rest of the world? Gerel Falconer's Tones follows the pivotal moments of lead character Jerome, aka The Professor, and his upbringing from childhood to his departure from university. As he battles with his identity we go on a journey through the depths of Black-British culture, class, and belonging.
Tones combines the gritty underground sounds of Hip-Hop, Grime and Drill with the melodrama of opera to tell the story of a treacherous path to self-discovery. The original production was presented by award-winning Wound Up Theatre.
From writer and performer Gerel Falconer, winner of Best Book and Lyrics at the Black British Theatre Awards 2023 and nominee for The Stage Debut Awards 2023, Tones is a riveting exploration of the Black experience and the Mixed experience.
This edition was published to coincide with the run at Summerhall's Roundabout, at Edinburgh Festival Fringe in August 2024.
