Full event details

This Drama and Film taster session will take the Notting Hill Carnival as its focus. It will explore culturally rich practices of carnival, and different ways that performers and spectators participate, for example, through dance, costume, food, music and sound. We will discuss the importance of global histories of trade, migrancy and race relations in the development of the carnival in the Caribbean and London, and consider how it has been represented in news, media and film.
