The harder they come.


Nordic Black Theatre presents:
THE HARDER THEY COME - ON STAGE

based on the legendary jamaican film by Perry Henzell

Premiere: Wednesday 23rd September 2009
at 8pm
at the theatreboat MS Innvik, Bjørvika

The classic jamaican film comes alive on stage with Live Band, dancers, DJs,
singers, jamaican set designers and much more!


Reggae, rocksteady, ska and soul provide a musical backdrop for the story
of Ivan Martin who travels from the country to Kingston to make it as a
singer. The road is more rocky than he anticipates, soon he is wanted by
music producers, fans and eventually the police. Ivan is determined to
overcome all obstacles at any cost, but his ambition leads him down a path
of self-destruction. The film rapidly became a much loved, cult classic
over the whole world. This theatre version revitalises and refreshes the
classic story.

The play runs until Saturday 3rd October all days except Monday 28th
September (no show) and Saturday 26th show is at 9pm


Tickets available from www.billettservice.no
Tickets can also be bought at MS Innvik at the door - NB! no pre-booking
at the boat.

Poland style!

Since No 1 station this month is an polish african affair we have to show Fandango Gangs brand new video, really nice on indeed(Cypress Hill vibes right?)Our special guest from Rainbow HiFi, Dj Taste has even sneaked in the end cutting shit up.
Freely translated the meaning is, when there is plenty of food growing why are people hungry?

Afrikan history week 2009!


Next week is the yearly music (AND CULTURE)festival, Afrikan history week.
A festival with lots of good performances, with reggae eyes one would notice the legendary: Linton Kwesi Johnson! but also great artists like Macka B ( The Teacher) Kasimba and the Tabanks Crew.
But offcourse its more than reggaeacts, check out the program here, and make sure to not be without this event!
