What: Paul Cookson Poetry Workshop
Where: Ravenscourt Arts, Hammersmith, London
When: June 2,3,4, 2014
Just under 300 children booked places for the poetry workshops which were scheduled for the 1st week of June in Ravenscourt Arts. Paul Cookson was the poet and Darren Hirst the M.C. as the schools’ groups came and went, over a three day period.
The Yankees continued to need to re-jig their starting rotation and still had problems filling the last spot or two in their bullpen. Add this to their on-going struggles with the bat and this was always going to be a difficult month and that’s just how it proved.
The Yankees didn’t have the month they’d dreamed of in May but given their extensive injuries (particular to starting pitchers) and continuing power hitting woes, it was about as good as it could have been. They came out of the month with a .500 record (14 wins, 14 losses) which kept them in contention for the wild card whilst letting Toronto open up a lead at the head of the American League East.
Australian fans will want to note that Eagles will appear on 60 minutes on Channel 9 tomorrow night.
Here’s the press release:
As Eagles arrive in Europe to begin their tour, they have announced dates for next year for New Zealand and Australia. Here they are:
What: Henry IV Part II
When: May 15th 2014
Where: Royal Shakespeare Theatre, Stratford-Upon-Avon.
The Royal Shakespeare Company last performed Henry IV Part II in 2008 as part of their “Histories” cycle. On that occasion it was necessary that they performed both Henry IV plays in tandem as they were performing all of Shakespeare’s history plays. Now in 2014, they have chosen to perform the two together again. I wonder at the wisdom of this decision.
More injury problems for the Yankees. Carlos Beltran, who had been listed as day-to-day, went to the 15-day disabled list.
The Yankees lost Shawn Kelley to the disabled list, to add to their pitching woes. He is suffering with stiffness in his back and will be unavailable until the 28th of May at the earliest.
They do say that bad luck comes in threes and the Yankees have now lost three of their starting pitchers for the next few weeks.
