How did it go?
Michael Rosen performed to a sell out audience of 1050 children and their teachers at the stunning Blackpool Grand theatre. Just being in that building was thrilling enough with its red velvet seats and gold gilt ceiling let alone seeing Michael perform some of our all time favourite poems to an enraptured audience. There was lots of joining in with No Breathing, The Rhythm of Life and of course, Chocolate Cake and so much laughter! Every child left the theatre clutching their very own copy of Michael's Big Book of Bad Things to take home and keep.
