Talkaoke is returning to Hackney and you are invited! Join us for a live in person pop up talkshow, where everyone is welcome to grab the mic and suggest a conversation topic. We will be exploring the themes suggested by the residents of Pembury Estate and what they would like to see happening in their community. The event is a collaboration with Peabody Community Centre.

How does Talkaoke work?
It’s simple: the Talkaoke host sits in the middle of a round table and you, the participants, sit at small tables close by. Each table has a mic and you are invited to talk about anything they like. Each discussion is a journey from one unexpected subject to another: it can be topical, funny, deep, surreal, and everything in between. The conversation will be visualised live by a digital illustrator. It’s a drop in – so feel free to stay for as long or as little as you can.
