Acclaimed British and Ethiopian poet, playwright and broadcaster Lemn Sissay launched the 2021 programme this week as the festival guest director – a role he was to have fulfilled last year before the 2020 festival was cancelled. Lemn’s 2021 programme represents a welcome return for the arts under a theme which will resonate with everyone. There will be more than 90 events outdoors and online from May 1 and then safely back on stage from May 17 to 31. 30 events will offer free tickets. https://brightonfestival.org/
