Join us at Off The Page, a night where stories come alive. Share your work, hear others, and be transported. Adults only, 18+.
About this Event

Welcome to Off The Page, a warm and inviting space where words come to life and stories find their voice. Held at the award-winning Afrori Books, the evening is perfectly set against a backdrop of incredible works by renowned authors, creating an inspiring atmosphere for all.

Whether you're a budding writer or an experienced wordsmith, this is your opportunity to share something from your catalogue or perhaps a piece you’re still crafting.

Join us for an evening where we transport our audience to other worlds, each tale unfolding with beauty and imagination. There’s a unique joy in hearing stories aloud, as the words resonate through the room, creating a shared experience that connects us all. It’s a night of shared stories, where the power of writing takes centre stage, and every voice is celebrated.

Want to Perform?

Off The Page is committed to amplifying underrepresented voices — creating a space for stories, perspectives, and people that are too often overlooked. While our stage is open to everyone, we prioritise offering opportunities to marginalised writers.

As we often receive a high number of submissions, if we’re unable to offer you a slot this time, you’ll be given priority for our next event.

If you’re an author, poet, or writer interested in reading or performing, we’d love to hear from you. Get in touch with us at .

Please note, this event is for adults only—no under 18s allowed.
