@the.rendition: Afronauts, with the duo you didn’t know you needed! 🥹🚀 Writer Ryan Calais Cameron (For Black Boys…, Retrograde) and Monique Touko (Jaja’s African Hair Braiding, Marie and Rosetta) are joining forces for the very first time as co-directors of the World Premiere of The Afronauts by Ryan Calais Cameron at the Royal Court! Zambia, 1964: the space race has a new contender. As the world’s great powers set their sights on the moon, a schoolteacher gathers a group of misfit dreamers and trains them for lift-off. The Afronauts tells the true(ish) story of the Zambian Space Program, and a nation’s defiant dream to reach for the stars. Marking the finale of the Royal Court Theatre’s 70th anniversary, friends this is a production you do not want to miss! ✨ 📍 @Royal Court Theatre 🗓 14 November – 19 December 2026 ✍️ Ryan Calais Cameron
