Sancho & Me

Work:: Sancho & Me (S0838276030)

Charles Ignatius Sancho was born on a slave ship on the Atlantic Ocean in 1729, yet he became a writer, composer, shopkeeper and respected 'man of letters' in 18th century London becoming the first man of African Heritage to vote in Britain.

Author

Paterson Joseph

Production:: (T02108370021)

This is the extraordinary story of an unlikely hero, brought to life by actor and author Paterson Joseph, who performs an enthralling account of one man's remarkable life. Part-biography and part-dramatized readings from Paterson's acclaimed novel 'The Secret Diaries of Charles Ignatius Sancho', Sancho & Me is an unmissable evening of storytelling with themes intersecting with Paterson's own story of being Black and British. This is a vital story connecting a Black Life in the transatlantic world from nearly three hundred years ago with a modern-day Black Life in today's UK.
