Born on a slave ship in 1729, later becoming the fellow actor and
friend of David Garrick and the first black person of African
origin to vote in Britain, the life of Charles Ignatius Sancho was
full of surprising, moving and funny twists. As Thomas Gainsborough
paints his famous portrait, we are given an insight into the
forgotten but true story of an African man who dared to act, write,
sing, dance and voice his political opinion with wit and charm. One
of the UK's finest actors, Paterson Joseph (Peep Show, Emperor
Jones, Survivors) brings Sancho to life in this world premiere at
the Burton Taylor Studio.
