Riverside Studios became a ‘home from home’ for writer and performer Benjamin Zephaniah in the mid-1980s when his first plays Playing the Right Tune (1985) and Job Rocking (1987) were rehearsed here and premiered to acclaim. 

 

Now, as part of our Black and Gifted programme, we are delighted to welcome Benjamin back for a conversation about his life and career with the opportunity for you to ask your own questions.

 

This event is free thanks to support from the National Lottery Heritage Fund.
