Porgy and Bess; Liverpool giant puppets; Gerald Seymour
Giant puppets return to Liverpool; thriller writer Gerald Seymour (Harry's Game) on Irish politics; the two stars of Porgy and Bess; the South American artistry of Gego reviewed.
Tonight's Front Row celebrates the return of giant puppets to Liverpool. This time, the little girl and her dog are joined by her grandmother: Kirsty Lang finds out about the threesome, and how Liverpool council copes with turning the city-centre into a giant's performance-space.
Also in the programme: thriller writer Gerald Seymour on the changing face of contemporary Irish politics; Rufus Bonds Jnr and Nicola Hughes on singing Porgy And Bess; and a review of the first solo exhibition of works by Gego - who has been described as the grandmother of Venezuelan contemporary art.
