We’re turning over the stage to the people of Bradford for an open mic night in The Beacon hosted by the one and only Kirsty Taylor.

Say It As It Is is a night for bold voices, open hearts and truth-telling. A space to speak, listen and connect. Whether you’re a poet, a storyteller, a rapper or a musician, this is your chance to share something raw, real or brand new. No fancy stages and no big egos – just voices, words and proper Bradford flavours.

A night for bold voices, open hearts and truth telling. Step up, speak out, and connect through words, community and the power of shared stories.

The mic is open. Come to perform. Come to listen. Come to be part of something.
