  • Theatre Peckham 221 Havil Street London, England, SE5 7SD United Kingdom (map)

Pocomania is a seminal play written by African-Jamaican activist, feminist and journalist Una Marson in the 1930s. The piece addresses African spiritual practices, classism, identity and mental health. Hailed as Jamaica's national play for its excellent depiction of how a community forms a resilient identity in the midst of oppressive colonial frameworks and class division. The play is now revived and will be staged for it's British debut by Decolonising the Archive's Connie Bell.
