Reading Windrush Alliance proudly presents …
Howling Wind, a portrayal of the Windrush story, starting in the 1950s when British institutions began to actively recruit Black British subjects in the West Indies to come to help rebuild the “Mother Land” following the devastation caused by WW2.
Mya and her siblings are left with relatives for several years. On her arrival in the UK, reconciliation is challenging for 14-year-old Mya, but she excels in school amid racism, discrimination and family challenges.
The play outlines both the struggles and the many successes and achievements of the Windrush generation and their descendants.
Written by Noa Abraham and directed by local playwright Steve Macauley, this is a must see for the entire family.
