Dear White People, Citizen, Invisible, The Outcast, Soundscapes
The week's cultural highlights, including comedy Dear White People, Claudia Rankine's book Citizen, Invisible at London's Bush Theatre and Sadie Jones's The Outcast.
American comedy film Dear White People takes a look at race relations on a US campus - between the black and white students and within each group
Claudia Rankine's book Citizen deals with her own experience of everyday racism as well as the way white society deals with blackness
Invisible is a new work by Oscar-winning playwright Rebecca Lenkiewicz at London's Bush Theatre. It's about the effect that removing legal aid will have on the justice system - how well can she breathe life into such a potentially dry subject?
Sadie Jones' has adapted her own prize-winning novel The Outcast into a 2 part drama for Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ1 - does it make prize-worthy TV?
Soundscapes is a new exhibition at London's National Gallery - combining specially commissioned compositions with art works from the collection. is this a good or a ridiculous notion?
