'Today, we colored men and women, everywhere - are up against it...In the South, they make it as impossible as they can for us to get educated. Each year, the problem just to live, gets more difficult to solve.'The first play by an African American woman ever produced professionally. In the North, they make a pretence of liberality; they give us the ballot and a good education, and then snuff us out.

The European premiere - and the world's first production for nearly 100 years - of Rachel is directed by exciting young director Ola Ince, as part of Black History Month.Rachel is a young, educated, middle-class woman.
