This event will take place in EartH Theatre.
Welcome to The Commons, a live gathering for everyone who's noticed that everything feels a little bit broken, a little too expensive, and a lot on fire.
Let’s talk about why, and how we can unite to change things.
Hosted by Taskmaster’s Ivo Graham, The Commons is an evening of comedy, music and politics.
While the mainstream media and wealthy elites argue that migrants and refugees are the root of all our problems, The Commons will look past the headlines to ask:
**Why are we getting poorer?**
**Where is the money going?**
**Who benefits from all of this division?**
Expect comedy from Ivo Graham (our host), Stewart Lee, Blank Peng, and Tadiwah Malunge alongside speakers including Faiza Shaheen (Executive Director of Tax Justice UK), James Meadway (Director of the Progressive Economy Forum), and organisers from ACORN (the renters and community union) with more to be added.
The Commons is a space to come together, share ideas, laugh (if only to keep from crying), and go forward from in unity.
Change starts with a conversation.
Let’s talk.
**All profits raised will be donated to Asylum Aid and Hackney Migrant Centre.**
