Statement of Regret

Kwaku Mackenzie founder of a Black policy think tank hits the bottle after his father's death. As media interest in the once dynamic Institute fades his team grows fractious and then disastrously he favours a young Oxford scholar over his own devastated son. When in a vain attempt to regain influence he publicly champions division within the Black community the consequences are shattering.<br/> <br/>Kwame Kwei-Armah's third play for the National Theatre opens in November 2007 and takes a punchy provocative look at the Black British experience and the need or not for solidarity.
