Two London Irish Nigerian brothers use storytelling, poetry, photography, film and music to evoke the astonishing life of a gay, black, Irishman who loved life and found love.
Featuring the Irish Nigerian poet and playwright Gabriel Gbadamosi and his (now French) brother, the retired storyteller David Gbadamosi, the event is a tribute to their older brother Storm, a gay black Irishman whose life was marked by love, courage and extraordinary vitality – and to their younger brother, Nick, who loved him and died of a broken heart.
Blending storytelling, poetry, photography, film and music, the brothers recreate family memories and London lives with humour, tenderness and honesty. Part memoir, part performance and part celebration, Storm offers a powerful portrait of identity, belonging and the bonds that endure across loss.
Presented by two distinctive voices of Black Irish life in Britain, this is an intimate and unforgettable evening of words, music and memory.
