Queens of Sheba, the award-winning production from Nouveau Riché, is playing at the Rose from Thursday 19 – Saturday 21 November.

Turned away from a nightclub for being "too black", four women take to the stage with their own explosive true stories: the music and the misogyny, the dancing and the drinking, the women and, of course, the (white) men.

Loosely based on the DSRKT nightspot incident of 2015, Queens of Sheba tells the hilarious, moving and uplifting stories of four passionate Black Women battling every-day misogynoir; where sexism meets racism. Written by Jessica L. Hagan and devised by the company.

Nouveau Riché is an exciting, diverse, multi-award winning creative movement and winners of the Untapped 2018 Award and Edinburgh Stage Award 2018.

Critical acclaim for Queens of Sheba:

"Nouveau Riché's pared-back piece has insight, power, and beautiful a cappella singing… Provides both joy and entertainment without pandering to its audience." – The Guardian

"A theatrical firework, in which four terrific performers burst across the stage using song, movement and spoken word to examine Misogynoir." – Independent
