Reading in Bed
Today, TRO staff and volunteers , plus some reading group members, are taking part in 'Bed in at the Bluecoat'. Marking the anniversaries of Lennon's birthday and assassination, the Bluecoat is recreating John and Yoko’s famous 1969 peace protest. Each day a bed in their Hub will host a new action by performers, artists and others. It's our turn today and we'll be 'Reading in Bed' between 11am - 3pm, for 15 minutes each. Come on down and listen to us reading a selection of poetry and short stories, some of which will be from Angela Macmillan's wonderful collection, A Little, Aloud.
