Tambo & Jones – Theatre Royal Stratford East, London
Book from 16th June – 15th July
Tambo & Bones are trapped in a minstrel show. It’s hard to feel real when you’re stuck in one. Their plan: get out, get bank, get even.

Part distorted clown show, part hip-hop concert, part absurdist Afro-futuristic lecture (with robots!) – TAMBO & BONES explores the commodification of Black pain. It’s a sharp, satirical roller coaster of a show.
