The Blackprint Concert is a bold showcase of Black creative brilliance. It isn’t just a concert; it’s a call to action, a celebration, and a movement. Black excellence in theatre and music takes centre stage unapologetically and powerfully. You can expect powerhouse vocals, magnetic performances, and a soul-stirring reminder of the talent that too often goes unseen.
Despite a wealth of talent, Black creatives face systemic barriers in theatre and music. The Blackprint Concert is here to change that. By attending, you're not just watching a concert, you’re investing in equity, empowerment, and lasting change in the performing arts industry. Described as “A Fearless Declaration of Black Artistry Taking Up Space”, The Blackprint Concert will star a stellar lineup of seasoned West End performers and freshly emerging talent. This one-of-a-kind event will amplify the richness, diversity, and beauty of Black artistry in all its forms.
All proceeds will fund scholarships, mentorships, and career development programmes for the next generation of Black artists.
