Amanda Sum的《New Age Attitudes: Live in Concert》虽然包含歌曲和故事元素,但绝非音乐剧!
对跨领域艺术家Rebecca (Becky) Bair来说,「黑人性」(blackness)代表着人多势众和机会。身为素里黑人艺术中心(Black Arts Centre)董事的她强调,在纪录黑人历史时,仅聚焦于他们遭遇的残酷待遇并不足够。

由約翰·藍儂以至賈斯汀·比伯等作曲家都曾創作過關於道歉的作品,但溫哥華唱作人Amanda Sum的作品卻是獨一無二。在她名為《New Age Attitudes》的首張專輯內,「Sorry」這首作品以簡單的民謠吉他曲調為開首。這讓Amanda動人的歌聲得以充份發揮,唱出了對系統性歧視和流傳已久的種族定型的控訴,當中更包含了強烈的個人觀點。

Sum, a theatre and musical artist, will combine both of her art forms at the Cultch Historic Theatre from May 11 to 14.
