MISSION STATEMENT
We create non-conventional theatre, dance and creative arts productions and events.
We collaboratively explore a range of stories and forms from underrepresented Black British subcultures, provoking and encouraging audiences to do the same.
Initiative.dkf is a multidisciplinary arts duo formed by Artistic Director Damilola ‘DK’ Fashola and mononymous Creative Producer Wofai.
