- **Event Start and End Date**: Thu, 19 Mar, 2026 at 07:15 pm
- **Event Description**: A laugh-out-loud, heart-punching one-man show that navigates migration, identity and belonging through the bold, cheeky brilliance of West African storytelling.

Meet Mokan - a man on a humorously chaotic quest for The Nigerian Dream. From dodgy landlords to airport mishaps and the wild myths people believe about “life abroad,” his journey is packed with laughs, sharp observations and moments of truth that hit unexpectedly deep.

With live drumming, music, dance and playful audience interaction, this high-energy performance blends hope, resilience and the universal search for home.

Written and performed by Oldham-based, Nigerian-born writer, comedian, actor and theatre-maker Oluwasegun Lafup Ogundipe.
