Madani Younis to step down as creative director of Southbank Centre

After only a short stint in the key role at Southbank Centre – less than a year – Madani Younis has resigned as creative director “in order to pursue new creative opportunities”. Younis replaced Jude Kelly, yet did not take on the same title of artistic director as Kelly when she departed.

In a statement, Younis said: “I am pleased to have been able to set in motion a number of creative projects with the help of the talented team around me during my time with Southbank Centre. I have decided however that I want to pursue other creative interests in the coming months. My thanks go to the Southbank Centre’s board of governors and staff.”
