Tonight I attended the wonderful A Poem for Every Night of the Year event at the National Theatre.
Allie Esiri’s new anthology is a journey through a calendar year, highlighting key moments and dates with a poem for every night, by writers such as Maya Angelou, Robert Burns and Benjamin Zephaniah.
A fabulous evening of readings of some of the joyous, magical, dramatic and humorous poems in this journey through history and human experience.
With guest readers Kate Duchêne, Hattie Morahan, Giles Terera and Samuel West.
