A relaxed and revolutionary performance space with the m/other of all line-ups.
Join Lizzy Humber, local m/others and guest m/other artists for a daytime open mic with songs, poetry, comedy and stories. These are a relaxed and lively spaces for grown ups, but children are welcome and supported to be themselves, no shhing required. The artistic voices and stories of m/others are platformed, but everyone is welcome within the audience. Expect an uplifting, supportive and empowering hour (and a bit) – 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!

“This event was epic! It felt supremely radical to witness the talented bill of poets and singer-songwriters – all of them mothers – whilst sharing the space with our children who were welcome, unapologetically, as their whole selves."
"A great event - so helpful to hear an honest voice about motherhood, parenthood, otherhood."
