Sonnetathon at the British Museum

A continuous reading of classic and contemporary sonnets to mark the 400th year of Shakespeare's death. Devised by Poet in the City, the event will see performers read in the Museum's Great Court, which also plays host to a bloomin' lovely backdrop created by F.Bombe using blossoms found within the sonnets. Interactive elements include a mulberry tree to which visitors can pin their favourite Shakespearean phrases, and an Ophelia's garland making workshop for the little ones.
