Review: Made you Look, Theatre Peckham - Everything Theatre Theatre Peckham’s Young, Gifted and Black season celebrating young Black artists opens explosively, with acerbic writing and feverish performance from Ty’rone Haughton.

#Review: Made You Look, Theatre Peckham ★★★★★

"This is a performance that is visceral with its accusations and tender in its inquisitiveness about how we got to this situation."

Nina Simone was born on this day, 92 years ago. My favorite song of hers is "Little Girl Blue," because she always takes the opportunity to go full classical. Eat your heart out, Curtis Institute. #younggiftedandblack

How are you navigating the external pressures and continuing to know the truth of who you are? #strengthsbased #discernment #younggiftedandblack #survivingtothriving #ackschoolpsychologist #belonging #livingin3dpower

In a world that tried to diminish our brilliance, especially our Black babies, let’s take some time to focus on how we show up and how we can ensure we speak like, even when the world is burning. #younggiftedandblack #curiositycards #blackschoolpsychologist #strengthsbased #selfdiscovery
