‘We die. That may be the meaning of life. But we do language. That may be the measure of our lives.’ – Toni Morrison
Join the Young Vic for an evening of shared readings in celebration of the life of Toni Morrison.
To mark the one month anniversary of Toni Morrison’s recent passing, audiences are invited to the Young Vic on Thursday 5 September to join Kwame Kwei-Armah in reading aloud their favourite passages and quotes from her work and life. The evening will be a moment to listen to and to celebrate the words of this remarkable woman – one of the most influential and important writers of her generation.

Performances – Thursday 5 September, 6.30pm
Tickets will be available to book online from from 12pm on Tuesday 13 August.
