For those on a budget, or wanting to catch something spontaneous and unticketed—the BBC Marquee events 👍.
Essentially radio prog. recordings: great discussions, chance to hear participants live.
Yesterday’s BBC Culture event on Children’s books had:
- Jeffrey Boakye (teacher & author of ‘Musical Truth’—fabulous history of black music culture in UK)
- Julia Eccleshare (Children's Books editor for The Guardian)
-Michael Rosen (children’s author and tenacious survivor).
Callum Scott Howells and director Luke J Collins were very enlightening and entertaining in their recounting of the making ‘On the Black Hill’for ‘The Read’ series. #HayFestival2023
