On Blake's Steps

An open poetry reading on the site of Blake's birth
with NAOMI FOYLE, NIALL McDEVITT and JEREMY REED
SPECIAL GUESTS INCLUDE: TYMON DOGG, SUSAN DE MUTH & AJDEHANY THE CHILDREN
The organisers say that all are welcome to perform.
 Sunday Feb 2O at William Blake House, 8 Marshall Street, Soho, W1 (Oxford Circus tube) 2pm Free
N.B. On Blake's Steps is, as always, an outdoor event so dress inappropriately and bring your own scandalously cheap alcohol. (Blake doesn't care if it's an 'Alcohol Restriction Zone'). If the weather's biblical I gather that everyone will decamp to The John Snow on Broadwick Street.
"The Angel that presided o'er my birth
Said 'Little creature formed of Joy and Mirth,
Go Love without the help of any king on earth"
