“ …. and who the f*ck is Madeline?” - Manchester, let’s Discuss Lily Allen

Perfect for Manchester women seeking a meaty conversation!

Unless you have been living under a rock, you've heard about Lily Allen's explosive new album, West End Girl. It chronicles (in very intimate detail) her breakup from her husband and dives into the details of his alleged affairs. 

"Lily Allen’s ‘West End Girl’ Is the Most Brutal Album of the Year... a masterful portrayal of modern love and loss, revealing an unflinching honesty that’s made many listeners reassess their own experiences" Rolling Stone. 

Whether you've listened or not and whether you like it or not, join us to discuss this powerful album. Would you ever be tempted to release a tell-all album? What would you do if a partner asked to open the relationship? What do you think of the public and press response? Has it been fair? Has it been sexist? 

Don't forget to bring headphones so you can refresh your memory of each track. 

The Format

  • A very informal atmosphere 
  • Small table
  • Prompt cards to guide the conversation (with QR codes for each song)
  • A food hall, some drinks, and a room full of people keen for a proper conversation

Please note that every attendee is welcome to order their own drinks. We have moved the start time to 7.30pm to allow everyone time to eat beforehand.
