A relaxed and revolutionary daytime performance space in Exeter designed to amplify m/other artists and voices.
Join hosts Lizzy Humber and Eleanor Viola with mothers and non-binary parents for a sharing of songs, poetry and stand up.
This is a relaxed and lively space designed for parents, where children are welcome too. Everyone is welcome in the audience.
Expect an uplifting, supportive and empowering gig– in the middle of the day! So whether you’re in need of a bit of culture, a community or just an early lunch break – you are welcome!
Content is adult centred, this sometimes this can include strong language and adult themes. We find younger children tend not to notice as they are too busy playing, but we offer content warnings before each sharing so you can choose what’s right for you and any accompanying children.
Please see terms and conditions here.
