The clash of the world-wide pandemic and the rise of the Black Lives Matter movement was accompanied by Naomi Bah’s moment of personal transformation. Her solo performance Being A Black Woman provides the answers to the questions about her own identity she had long procrastinated to find. They had been buzzing underneath the surface and now were released onto a piece of paper. Naomi takes the audience on an intimate journey through the year 2020 that had contributed to her self-discovery as a Black, Afro-German woman.
Naomi Bah is an Afro-German actress currently living in Hamburg. She was born and raised in Stuttgart, one of the most multicultural cities in Germany. The world of theater opened up to her in a very inclusive and international way, which continues to have a strong impact on her. Her second home is Berlin, where she has been working with her collective »The Soul Sauna Symposium« she tries to build bridges between the advancement of socio-political debates and active action. Due to her own intersectionality, her work and art is exclusively politically motivated.
