Booking is advised There is a reservation fee of £10 per table and the price of the ticket will get you that amount off you're first round of drinks unless you decide to donate the cost to CLAY. 

Mafwa Theatres’s Sit With Us.

Mafwa Theatre presents Sit with Us, an interactive installation where women from different migration backgrounds invite you to sit, make yourself comfortable and listen.

Sit with Us is created by and with Kuluhenna Drama, a group of women from refugee, asylum seeker and settled Leeds communities who have worked with artists to create the set design and performances to be delivered in the space.

The installation came from a desire to create a tranquil oasis and explores what it means to be comfortable in a hostile environment.

CLAYground pilot series (August- October 2021) was made possible with support from Leeds Inspired to address the lack of non-hierarchical spaces for live artists and those interested in artworks to co-exist and test things out.
