Queer Domino Project: Fireside Lime at the Paper Garden.
Tickets Off Sale
The Queer(ribbean) Dominoes Project is a collaboration between Brixton Immortals and bare radicals Productions that seeks to create intergenerational spaces for queer Caribbeans to master the power of Dominoes. The intention behind this project is to create intergenerational spaces for queer Caribbeans and allies of all ages to meet, play and connect in a non-judgemental accessible social space.
For our Autumn line-up, we’re inviting our community + allies for an afternoon of workshop, games and hopefully nourishing conversation facilitated by members of the BORN::FREE Collective.
It will be hosted at the Paper Garden in between Canada Water and Surrey Quays stations.

malakaï sargeant

They create and interrogate through an Afroqueer lens, in an often subversive and nonlinear way, employing unconventional forms that disrupt notions of time and space. malakaï orbits around ideas of creolisation, gender binaries, Black interiority, hood surrealism, and magic within carceral geographies. They do bits in the spaces between literature, audio, installation, theatre, and performance. For their writing are represented by The Good Literary Agency.
malakaï has been commissioned by the RSC, Apples & Snakes, Spread the Word, the Royal Court Theatre, and Nationwide. They (almost) completed an MA in Black British Literature and DJ and sound design under the pseudonym anxious.selecta. malakaï has tutored various cohorts of Black writers and is Co-Creative Director of Afrodiasporic literary arts platform BORN::FREE.
