Rage is not just a feeling—it’s fuel.

Love is not just a feeling—it’s a tool.

We fight fracturing with intimacy. Foster ferocity and tenderness in equal measure. In love and rage we find the catalysts for revolutionary change.

From Esme Allman’s soft black girl to Sunny Singh’s brutal tales of survival to Mymona Bibi’s and Simran Kaur Johal’s contributions to The Hajar Book of Rage, our writers weave the personal and the collective. They invite self awareness and reflection, they challenge, they transport.

Our Love & Rage Cabaret is an antidote to the numbness of information overload, the paralysing effects of despair, the brain rot of doom scrolling. Feel it. The love and the rage.

Features readings, performance and discussion.
