A day early perhaps, but a great way to celebrate International Women's Day. On Saturday our Picaresque troupe had a wonderful morning at the Wilson Art Gallery and Museum, reading poems inspired by works in their collections as part of the preview weekend for the forthcoming Cheltenham Poetry Festival. We had a very appreciative audience, for whom it was a pleasure to read - we even had the People's Poet, John Hegley, amongst them, an honour indeed! As was the headline in the local newspaper "Festival's best showcased in preview event" - something to live up to there!
