About this Event
The Wrong They Knew is a powerful story of courage, community, and the fight to be heard - inspired by real events of the time.
London, middle of the 20th century as the streets of Forest Hills erupts with unrest, Teddy Boy gangs and police clash with Black and mixed-race families in a city divided by fear and prejudice. Yet amid the turmoil, a group of families from across the community dream of creating a Community Carnival - a celebration of unity and hope in the face of hate and the first one of its kind.
Among them, a spirited group of children and teenagers stand strong, using humour, curiosity and friendship to make sense of the chaos around them. The Wrong They Knew is a moving, defiant story about standing together, finding your voice, and the extraordinary power of community to overcome barriers that shouldn't exist.
Exploring themes of justice, racial prejudice, and the experiences of children and youth in a divided community, the show echoes the spirit of classic literary works that have challenged inequality and inspired generations. Works such as To K*ll a Mockingbird, Cry, the Beloved Country, Twelve Angry Men, I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings, Small Island, K*ll The Black One First and Absolute Beginners.
