An intimate play blurring the lines between storytelling and reality. Weaving the performers’ life stories with those of prisoners in five prisons across five decades in three countries: Palestine, the UK and Uganda. Made in Sheffield, now on tour.

The 70s influenced style and design profoundly. This definitive guide covers disco, shag carpets, supergraphics, and more. Estelle Bilson's talk explores the era's essence and how to integrate it into modern interiors with colour, joy, and kitsch.

100 Queer Poems celebrates contemporary and historical queer poetry. Co-editors Andrew McMillan and Clare Shaw will discuss queerness in poetry, perform their work, and engage in an audience Q&A, moderated by Harriet Tarlo.

In 2021, Désirée Reynolds curated Black Women Write Now for Off the Shelf, featuring Sheffield poets Sile Sibanda, Danae Wellington and Warda Yassin. The festival responded to demand by commissioning an anthology, which this event will celebrate.
