Recommend everyone go see Lubna Kerr Summerhall - had the privilege of welcoming Lubna to Sheffield with 'Tickbox' at Migration Matters Festival a few months ago and it is a beautifully delivered, funny and moving show.
Make sure its part of your Edinburgh Festival Fringe
We’re at the Fringe and on the lookout for shows that could be part of #MigMatFest23 so give us a shout if your show fits the festival themes and we’ll aim to come see it!
