Media personality, Funmi Iyanda, will be on
stage at Kachette 347 Old St, London EC1V 9LP
on
Sunday, August 27 for Oya
Chronicles: In Conversation With My Mother, reports ITRealms.
The enchanting one night event of spoken word,
dance, art and music will run from 6pm to 10pm.
In
Conversation With My Mother is the physical
embodiment of the literary piece of the same title written by Iyanda.
The haunting piece of literature promotes
dialogue as a form of healing, bridging the space between the writer and her
mother.
Oya Chronicles cleverly incorporates dance
and voice acting to recreate this conversation, transporting it from page to
stage, universalising its importance in the process.
What begins as a dialogue between mother
and daughter emerges as a timeless, ageless, and genderless conversation
between two humans, each longingly searching for each other, extending their
hands through eternity, reaching for love and healing, but mostly, for each
other.
Kachette in London will witness a dance
performance, the auction of a painting for charity, a live vinyl mixer, and a
concluding spoken word poetry performance.
Iyanda is a Nigerian media entrepreneur
with a long-standing record of connecting great people and ideas to diverse
audiences.
She is recognised by the World Economic
Forum (WEF) as a young global leader and by the BBC as one of the Women to
Watch in its 100 Women
Oya Chronicles is a rare opportunity to
take part in the auction of the painting titled And Freud Said He Didn’t Know and
the unique experience of witnessing Iyanda talk on stage.
