Bamako-Paris

Staged Reading

Ibou, a Malian stowaway hanging on to the landing gear of an Airbus A320 heading for Paris, is talking to us about his future, and his hopes. About Bamako. About his mother. The Djelibougou dump. The Black Autumn Riots. A burning topic of our time, handled with solemnity and humour. Staged reading of Ian Soliane’s play Bamako Paris (translated by Felicity Davidson) as part of the Institut français’ Cross-Channel Theatre programme, directed by Kimberley Sykes, with Clifford Samuel.
