Description Black Face, White Mask is a fast-paced play by a new theatre company The Flemington Theatre Group who are predominantly from Horn of Africa backgrounds. The play focuses on the lives of eight young people and what it means to be Afro-Australian as they confront casual racism and family tensions. It is fast, funny and in your face, exploring the complexity of contemporary Australian society from an Afro-Australian perspective with a direct, challenging blend of drama and comedy.
