Description
“Among the most compelling solo shows I’ve ever seen.” FringeGuru
“The most important show you’ll see during Brighton Fringe.” FringeReview
While Barack Obama is fulfilling his American Dream as the first Black president of the United States, Sylvia Arthur, a Black Brit, is in Brussels in pursuit of the European version.

Interweaving music, video, and images with spoken word, this one-woman show takes on the big issues of Brexit, Trump, #BlackLivesMatter, and the global refugee crisis in a powerful, compelling narrative that explores the meaning of identity, politics, power, and belonging in the post-post-racial 21st century.
