Nikita Gill: Hekate & Poems of Mythology, Lyra Fest
Date: Saturday 25th April 2026
Venue: Watershed (W3)
Time: 18:00 – 19:15
Tickets: £8 (£10 solidarity, £5 concessions)
In this magical evening of poetry and mythology, Nikita Gill reads from her spellbinding new verse novel Hekate, a reimagining of the forgotten origins of the goddess of witchcraft. Exploring themes of displacement, feminine rage, and the revolutionary potential of embracing one’s own power, this goddess narrative resonates with the same emotional depth and feminist power that has drawn 850,000 followers to her work.
With support readings from Rosie Garland (This Is How I Fight) and Emilie Jelinek (The Sky Around My Father) whose new poetry collections also respond in different ways to themes of mythology and identity.
