In this compelling two-hander by Christopher Nnodim Iheuwa, Colours delves into the intricate emotional and cultural landscape of love between two individuals carrying the weight of their pasts.
Meet John, a British student, haunted by a history of abuse and neglect. His world collides with Bimbo, a resilient young Nigerian immigrant who has survived migration trauma and emotional colonisation. Their unexpected connection, ignited in a vulnerable moment, blossoms into a profound dialogue about identity, race, pain, and the enduring impact of their individual journeys.
Through raw honesty and cultural contrasts, Colours reveals love as both a sanctuary and a force for reckoning. With mental health at its core, this powerful play champions unity in diversity, illustrating that our differences are often the source of our most profound harmony.
Christopher Nnodim Iheuwa, an accomplished actor, producer, scriptwriter, and director with over 30 years of experience in radio, stage, TV, and film, masterfully crafts a narrative that resonates deeply. Having starred in over 100 Nigerian movies and authored several plays, Iheuwa brings a rich understanding of human experience to this poignant work.
