An urgent conversation exploring the most pressing questions around men, boys, and masculinity today.

Hosted by musician, writer and broadcaster Jordan Stephens, join WOW at Shoreditch Town Hall for an evening of conversation, performance and a dose of laughter as we dig into what it really means to be a boy or man today. From money and mental health to stereotypes, fatherhood, sex, care, power and vulnerability – nothing’s off-limits.

Special guests include Inequality Economist and author Gary Stevenson, tackling the big questions about money and inequality’s impacts on men, poet Sam Browne with more guests still to be announced.

Expect honesty, humour and powerful moments of poetry and performance throughout the night. Featuring an introduction from WOW Founder Director Jude Kelly.

Whether you’re a dad, a son, a mate, a mentor or just curious, come and be part of the conversation.

Once home to East End boxing bouts, Shoreditch Town Hall is the perfect stage for a night that pulls no punches.

The evening is open to everyone of all genders.
