Jali 2022 single work drama

'Jali: noun: a West African historian, storyteller, praise singer, poet, or musician.   

'Refusing to be defined by a turbulent past, comedian and performer Oliver Twist reflects on his time as a refugee while carefully unpacking his present-day experiences. Delicately-told and impossible to forget, his one-person show proves that exceptional storytelling and belly-aching laughter are powerful antidotes to trauma.'
