MIF Live | PAYING ATTENTION! An Online Queer Literature Festival with Roma Havers & Friends

Watch Paying Attention! Bringing together six of the best queer writers in Manchester, working across all forms from poetry to performance and from fiction to theatre. Teaming up in pairs poets Frankie Blaus and Roma Havers, writer-performers Mandla Rae and Ella Otomewo, and novelists Okechukwu Nzelu and Rosie Garland read from their work, discussing their practice, reflecting, reminiscing and attempting to answer a vital question: ‘Now that you have our attention, how would you like to be read?’

Inspired by our Festival in My House series, we invited Manchester artists to create their own micro-international festivals at home, then stream them for us during the lockdown, live and for free.
