    Description

    BORN::FREE is one of London’s leading platforms for African and Afro-diasporic poetry and new writing. 

    With a focus on critique, creation and craft, the literary movement presents the next edition of Veranda, a series of experimental performance events centring Black British voices. October's edition pays homage to Black heroes from the past and present, as we start to imagine Black futures. 

    Hosted by the BORN::FREE team, the night will feature poet/educator Belinda Zhawi, writer/theatre-maker Malakaï Sargeant & writer/filmmaker Chima Nsoedo. Expect an informal yet insightful evening of live performance and readings packed with laughs and deep hums; many lessons and many blessings.

    Doors 7pm; ticket prices are suggested donations – you can also pay what you can on the door. 

    Open mic slots are available – email us with examples of your work.
