    Roshi Nasehi presents

    678 Mystic Nightingales

    Sun 14 Jan at 7.15pm
    Tickets £12 - £15
    ARCHIVE
    A comedy special presented by 678 Mystic Nightingales featuring some of the best Iranian diaspora artists and UK-based Iranophiles. All in support of brave demonstrators in Iran #WomanLifeFreedom.

    On September 16th 2022, 22 year old Kurdish-Iranian woman Mahsa Amini was killed by Iran’s ‘morality police’ for not adequately observing Iran’s religious dress code. Since then thousands of Iranians have turned out demanding freedom and choices for women as encapsulated by the phrase “zan, zendigi, azadi”, “woman life freedom”. The consequences for hundreds of brave protestors have been devastating but demonstrations continue with women and young people in particular pushing for a new, more progressive Iran.

    Performing tonight for free, this collective of critically acclaimed, regionally-connected artists have come together for a comedy special to raise funds for Free Them Now https://free-them-now.com/ and in solidarity with WLF protesters. Curated and presented by Roshi Nasehi, the night will feature sparkling performances and a timely panel discussion focussed on comedy and activism with some of the best in the business...
