Wild East with Ashley Hickson-Lovence

July 28 @ 12:30 pm - 1:30 pm

Ashley Hickson-Lovence who is a novelist, university lecturer and former school teacher invites us into fourteen-year-old music-lover Ronny’s life. We follow Ronny as his mum decides they’re moving out of London. In Norwich, as a Black teenager in a mostly white school, Ronny feels like a complete outsider. He tries his best to balance keeping his head down, and his goal of becoming a rapper alive. But when a local poet comes into class, he opens Ronny’s world to something new. Rap is like spoken word, lyrics equal poetry – and maybe the combination of both could be the key to Ronny’s dreams? Recommended ages: 10+
