Black Crows
Linda Brogan
Drama / European / English, Irish, Scottish, Welsh
A young black boy dances the shuffle better than anyone, but that isn't going to fill his belly. Teenager Hazel gives him what he wants. Older woman Leonora gives him what he needs. His mum Queenie is saving up to go to Jamaica and won't give him anything more than a catering tin of beans. The fight is on…
A powerful story of three women and their love for one man. Linda Brogan's new play creates a dark and vivid world of love, jealousy and hunger in 1970s Manchester.
Black Crows opened in a production by Clean Break theatre company at the Arcola Theatre in March 2007.
Linda Brogan's work includes What's in the Cat (Contact/Royal Court Theatre), You Are What You Eat (Writernet/Hydroponic), Basil and Beattie (Royal Exchange/Liverpool Everyman) and commissions by Wolsey/Tricycle (The Very Thought of You) and Contact (Ghost Town). She was a winner of the Alfred Fagon Award in 2001.
