The London Sea Shanty Collective

Exciting unexpected “poetry” development: members of the choir will be singing at the Ig Nobel Awards Tour Show in London on 16 March. A few of us are joining the “British premiere performance of the chorus-enhanced version of William Topaz McGonagall’s disastrous poem The Tay Bridge Disaster”. Plus Ig Nobel winners talking about their improbable and eccentric scientific research. Tickets sold out! But check here for returns https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/bahfest-ig -nobel-2019-ticket…
