Festival Frenzy

Mary Anne Hobbs is joined by Manchester International Festival artistic director Alex Poots, who talks about the best way to programme a festival.

It might be early but Mary Anne is here to help you face the new day, and have a mini morning music party ...

She won't judge your bed hair, your comical pyjamas or even the fact that you haven't brushed your teeth. So put the kettle on, get going, and let yourself move into the morning with a mix of music from all sides of the spectrum.

With festival season in full swing, Mary Anne also welcomes MIF Artistic Director Alex Poots for a short cameo, to talk about the best way to programme a festival.
