It’s a year since Culture& supported the development and performance of Spirits of the Black Meridian, which was a groundbreaking site-specific outdoor theatre production that took place 21st – 24th May 2025 in the grounds of the Old Royal Naval College on the Maritime Greenwich World Heritage Site as part of our Time, Space and Empire programme. This immersive and interactive promenade performance brought to life the hidden stories of Black people in Greenwich, and neighboring areas in Southeast London, uncovering their influence on British history and culture.

The University of Greenwich has filmed the production and there will be a screening – hosted by the Greenwich Caribbean Social Forum – the elders who were interviewed in the play. This will take place on Thursday 2 July from 4.00-6.30pm at The Bathway Theatre.
