Join inaugural Royal Shakespeare Company Poet in Residence Malika Booker and performance maker and curator Rachel Mars for a literary treat with special guests. Straight from the lip, these acclaimed writers and performers share their poetry, prose work and thoughts exploring and exposing sex in all its glory and complexity.
Followed by an open and frank Q&A with sexuality researcher Dr Lena Wanggren. We ask: How can we express our desires? What stops us?
Hosted by Malika Booker
