Spicy White

Developed through my Arts Council England DYCP Grant, Spicy White was written. Set in a school in London 2011, Spicy White follows Aisha, a teenage girl navigating a system that labels her anger as dangerous before she even speaks. Spicy White explores institutional control, racial fetishisation, silence and survival. It centres the voices of girls too often ignored and whose stories are rarely told with depth or truth.

In April 2026, Spicy White began a brief R&D, concluding in a staged reading as part of Theatre Delis’ SHIFT+SPACE season.

In April 2025, Spicy White was showcased as a rehearsed reading alongside a cultural exchange and Q&A to culminate the end of the DYCP Project that it was created in.

Spicy White is still currently in development and seeking producers and collaborators.‍
