About

Performed by Paterson Joseph.

Charles Ignatius Sancho was born on a slave ship on the Atlantic Ocean in 1729, yet he became a writer, composer, shopkeeper and respected 'man of letters' in 18th century London.

SANCHO & ME - FOR ONE NIGHT ONLY is a performance by Paterson Joseph accompanied by Ben Park, co-creator, musical director and delivered directly to the audience, part-improvised each night and built around his recent novel THE SECRET DIARIES OF CHARLES IGNATIUS SANCHO.

SANCHO & ME - FOR ONE NIGHT ONLY explores ideas of belonging, language, education, slavery, commerce, violence, threat, politics, music and love - and where these themes intersect with Paterson's own story of being Black and British.

Described as 'remarkable' and perfect for all ages 12 and upwards, the show is ably underscored live on-stage using Sancho's compositions and original music by co-creator, composer and musician Ben Park.
