A fiery new musical fusing reggae, R&B, and radical resistance, Black Power Desk hits London with a soul-stirring sisterhood saga you won’t want to miss.

A fierce original musical set in 1970s London, Black Power Desk tells a powerful true-inspired story of love, politics, and community resistance.

It is created by award-winning voices like Urielle Klein-Mekongo (Yvette), Gerel Falconer (2023 Black British Theatre Awards for Book & Lyrics), Renell Shaw (Ivor Novello Award recipient), and director Gbolahan Obisesan.

Themes of racial injustice, grief, and empowerment unfold through a live three-piece band blending lovers’ rock, R&B, and reggae.

Inspired by the Mangrove Nine, this limited-run world premiere runs exclusively at Brixton House—book your tickets for the world premiere of Black Power Desk in London, before the revolution ends.

The story

Black Power Desk at Brixton House unfolds in the heat of 1970s London, where two sisters—Celia and Dina—grapple with grief, love, and radical politics. As soul music rises and the Black Power Desk of New Scotland Yard looms large, their bond is tested by the fight for justice and community. But can love survive a revolution? Book your tickets for Black Power Desk in London and be a part of history rewritten in harmony for a new generation.
