About this event

The Long Play Sessions : Sathnam Sanghera In Conversation and Book Signing is on Saturday 24 October 2026 at ICMP Queen's Park, London, with doors at 17:30. Tickets start at £5.50, including the booking fee.

Join The Long Play Sessions for a fascinating exploration of the life, music and legacy of George Michael, as prize-winning author Sathnam Sanghera delves into the extraordinary story behind one of Britain’s most beloved musical icons. Through George Michael’s remarkable journey, Sathnam explores the defining forces of his life and career — from immigration, homophobia and fame to the cultural landscape of the 1980s and 90s, creative genius, the tabloids, addiction, obsessive fans and shame. A revealing and deeply engaging conversation about an artist whose music continues to resonate, and whose legacy has only grown in the years since his tragic death in 2016. Reviews: ‘A compulsive new fan’s-eye life of the singer . . . A fabulous account of the various expressions of George’s precocious and polymathic talent, from writing "Careless Whisper" aged 17 on the top deck of the No 32 bus to the great soul-revival of Faith’ ― OBSERVER ‘Fascinating and moving’ - ED SIMONS, THE CHEMICAL BROTHERS

Born in 1474, she ran a famed court, was a fashion icon and a cunning political operator. She left behind a magnificent collection of paintings, sculptures, books, instruments and curiosities. Long since lost or dispersed, all that remains is her correspondence - thousands of letters preserved in a deconsecrated church and convent, which make up the state archive of the city of Mantua. Inside this cavernous space, the ghost of Isabella is searching for the right scholar to give voice to her story. When she finds her, together through the letters, they resurrect a remarkable life: from a precocious daughter of a Duke and the painfully young wife of the Marquis of Mantua to a formidable court consort, collector, patron and political operator, guiding the state through the vicissitudes of war. A woman who unapologetically refuses to be bound by convention. The Marchesa is Renaissance history at its most vivid, an immersive, multi-layered experience that...
