I have to be a politician, who "happens" to be black. Not a black man who "happens" to be a politician.' Karen loves politics. She's a rising star but on the eve of a general election she risks her career and reputation on a bitter and contentious fight over whether to allow short lists for black Parliamentary candidates. Deselected by her party, and betrayed by the men she loves, Karen must embark on a relentless road to power and political redemption. Provocative and raw, Upper Cut unravels the fight for diversity and black representation through today's coalition politics, the hope and rebirth of New Labour and delves into the troubled heart of a Labour party struggling under the might of Thatcher's Tory revolution. Upper Cut is inspired by true political events. 410 0$aOberon modern plays. 606 $aWomen, Black$xPolitical activity$vDrama 606 $aMan-woman relationships$vDrama 606 $aBlack people$zGreat Britain$vDrama 606 $aBlack people$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00833880 606 $aMan-woman relationships$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst01007080 606 $aRace relations$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst01086509 606 $aWomen, Black$xPolitical activity$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst01178930 606 $aPlays, playscripts$2bic 607 $aGreat Britain$xRace relations$vDrama 607 $aGreat Britain$2fast 608 $aDrama.$2fast 608 $aDrama.$2lcgft 615 0$aWomen, Black$xPolitical activity 615 0$aMan-woman relationships 615 0$aBlack people 615 7$aBlack people. 615 7$aMan-woman relationships. 615 7$aRace relations. 615 7$aWomen, Black$xPolitical activity. 615 7$aPlays, playscripts. 676 $a822.914 700 $aRomero$b Juliet Gilkes$01489288 801 0$bUkLoBP 801 1$bUkLoBP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910787354003321 996 $aUpper cut$93741696 997 $aUNINA
