About this Event
A powerful evening of brand-new Ukrainian theatre, live music and poetry — featuring artists from Ukraine and their collaborators in the UK.
A moving, intimate night of art, resistance and solidarity.
Nights for Ukraine is a monthly series presenting brand new plays, spoken word and live music by Ukrainian artists, alongside their friends and collaborators in the UK.
Following the powerful Nights for Ukraine at the Cockpit, each evening offers a space to experiment, connect and be heard — creating a vibrant platform for artists responding to war, displacement and hope through performance.
Sorrow. Beauty. Resistance. Hope.
