EFG LJF x Collage presents:Tomorrow's Warriors presents KIKIMIKI

Thursday 21st Nov!

£10 advance, £8 concession, £12 OTD.

Doors 7pm, Music 8pm

Tomorrow’s Warriors presents KIKIMIKI as part of the EFG London jazz Festival 2024, in collaboration with Collage Arts.

KIKIMIKI is a new band from flautist and vocalist Keira Chakraborty, performing music that is rooted in jazz, mixed with indie and soul. Most of the band met at Tomorrow’s Warriors.

Keira has performed in locations such as London's Jazz Cafe, the Royal Albert Hall, Dizzie’s Jazz club in New York and at festivals including We Out Here and Love Supreme.

Her influences include Elena Pinderhughes, Miles Davis, Sonny Rollins, Joy Crookes, and Ezra Collective. You should expect to hear mostly originals with a line-up of flute, vocals, alto saxophone, piano, electric bass, and drums.

Tomorrow’s Warriors’ talent development programme has helped nurture an astounding list of award-winning alumni including Nubya Garcia, Shabaka Hutchings, Ezra Collective, Moses Boyd, Binker Golding and a whole host more. At the heart of this incredible musical movement is the ethos of ‘each one, teach one’, with each generation sharing their time and supporting the musicians that follow in their footsteps. The creative results are nothing short of inspiring and intoxicating, as witnessed in the new Tomorrow’s Warriors album, I Am Warrior......

A Black-founded and Black-led organisation, Tomorrow’s Warriors offers a pioneering, comprehensive programme of learning and training which champions and supports young Black and female talent and those who come from challenging circumstances that would be a barrier to accessing opportunities to pursue a music career.

Collage Kids is back! This Sat @ 2pm
'Little Red Riding Hood and Friends'
w/ Booster Cushion Theatre!

Little Red Riding Hood’s friend arrives to tell us the story but has a problem, there are no pages in the book! He tries to tell the story and we meet Red Riding Hood’s mum, dad and grandma but he keeps getting the story wrong. So Cinderella arrives to help, dancing a conga with her Jack’s Baked Beans Band and suggests auditions to find the Wolf to end the story.

There is lots of participation in this theatre show, with the audience becoming Cinderella’s backing band, auditioning to be wolves, helping Red Riding Hood’s dad cut down trees and dancing a conga. Tradition is left far behind in this fast, funny show that uses lots of slapstick and child participation. A fine introduction to theatre that presents a variety of fairytales. The children will be captivated from start to finish.

The £5 family ticket is for up to 4 people - eg: 2 adults + 2 children; or 1 adult + 3 children.
