Elmi Ali: Wateer Seeds Not Stones

Elmi Ali introduces us to Mamamawodi, a hawker, a bookworm, a street peddler, a traveller, a storyteller, an activist, a gardener and a librarian, in his original piece, Water Seeds Not Stones. Conjuring elaborate visions through traditional storytelling, whilst enduring real-world interruptions from her majesty’s border agency, this trickster takes his audience on a turbulent journey across continents and memories.

This event takes place at STUN Studio, 335 Stretford Road, Manchester M15 5ZA
