A rehearsed reading of Sweet Talk, Michael Abbensetts’ seminal first play, will be staged in honour of Abbensett’s contribution to the cannon of Black British plays and for the tremendous impact his television series Empire Road and The Little Napoleons had on the early presence of black faces on British television screens. Directed by Anton Phillips and presented by the Carib Theatre Company, this reading will provide an opportunity for friends and well-wishers to gather at the Tricycle Theatre to pay tribute to him, during a period of ill health. All proceeds will go towards his ongoing care.
