Our guest artist Mymona Bibi is inviting us to use our bodies to explore the themes of home and memory. We will experiment together in Alphabetti’s theatre space through guided physical performance techniques, movement exploration, poetry, and creative writing. This workshop is entry level and can be adapted to any range of mobility. It is for people who have moved around, people new to the city or the UK, people who are interested in discussing social housing and housing inequality, and interrogating what we define as home or being from somewhere.
