AfternoonsAvailable for 29 days
Scottish Ballet’s Artistic Director Christopher Hampson and Gene Kelly’s widow Patricia Ward Kelly join Len live from the Glasgow studio to talk about their extended Director’s Cut of Starstruck, based on Gene’s Pas de Dieux, ahead of its Scottish tour. Brian Bilston, known for his very clever, very funny poems on social media, tells Len about his new alternative guide to writing poetry How to Lay an Egg with a Horse Inside. And since it’s a Monday, we’ll have more great new music from a Scottish singer songwriter to add to Len’s Arts Mixtape – today it’s rising star Kerr Mercer with Love Me Twice.
