Yomi Ṣode is a multi-award-winning Nigerian-British writer who recently performed at the BBC Proms 2025. His debut collection, Manorism, was shortlisted for the T.S. Eliot Prize.

For this show, Yomi will offer a rare exploration of the third section of Manorism, following the staggeringly emotional glimpse audiences witnessed at his last Nottingham performance. This work delves into the guilt, shame, and acts of remembrance that can surface in the wake of losing a loved one.

The evening will begin with supporting acts ahead of Yomi’s performance.
