Platforming untold stories of Black queer lives, Team Angelica/The Art Machine are excited to be launching their fresh new audio drama Scooters, Shooters and Shottas: a Curious Tale. Set on a rough council estate in South London, it follows the rowdy antics of Black queer outsiders Kola, Ranksy and Bunni Boi, who dream of breaking big as grime artists. The drama explores violence, masculinity and homophobia, the struggle to pursue creative endeavours, and the socio-economic challenges faced by the Black queer community in London. In a Sex Education meets Top Boy style, it gives a voice to the underrepresented, and fosters discussions about issues faced by the Black LGBTQ+ community. Scooters, Shooters and Shottas: a Curious Tale is a Team Angelica/The Art Machine co-production. Supported by Arts Council England
