1. Manyaku Mashilo's "Grandmothers Teachings-the Night of the Red Moons",
2. Still from Michaela Coel's "I May Destroy You" &
3. Still from Blitz Bazawule's "The Burial of Kojo".

Dancehall airhorns for Romana Vrede who won the 2024 Playwright Prize. With this annual prize -which rotates between the Netherlands and Belgium- a jury picks the best, fresh-fresh written script. Language: Dutch. Romana Vrede won with 'Tijd zal ons leren'. A masterpiece indeed. So proud of her!

Not a Stromae song goes by where I don't promise myself to 'get back on my French.' I mean, food can be ordered and politeness can be extended. But poetically-fluent is the goal. When I finally reach that level, I'll owe a massive 'merci' to Maboula Soumahoro. Her podcasts and writings?! Let's. Go!

For 10+ years @readmyworld.bsky.social -festival has blessed me with so much. There, I attended some of my favourite programs and had the most precious encounters. It's always been home, always been fam. Out of all of that goodness, crossing paths with Maboula Soumahoro is one of the top-top joys.

Went to see Barbara Walker's "Being Here" at both the Whitworth in Manchester (early January) and Arnolfini in Bristol (early March), UK. Our traditional custom of calling yourself from certain spaces when you're leaving? Had to do that in Manchester. Walker's work completely drew me in. Fantastic.
