Hafsah Aneela Bashir, Andrew McMillan & Reshma Ruia.
1-14 November
What does Oxford Road mean to you? For Hafsah Aneela Bashir it’s attending university and growing into her own skin. For Andrew McMillan it’s a geographical portal into the past and memories of love. For Reshma Ruia it’s the rich tapestry of people and buildings from The Whitworth to The Refuge hotel. MLF and the Manchester Poetry Library have co-commissioned these three fantastic poets to create new micro-commissions for the first Corridor of Light Festival. Watch film footage of them performing their poems on location and discussing their work, imagination and Manchester.
