In May 2019 Prime Theatre and BBC Wiltshire asked the people of Swindon to help us make a Poem that highlights the town’s achievements and glories, uncovers its curiosities and culture, and celebrates its people and places.

As inspiration, BBC Wiltshire Broadcast daily Poems throughout May 2019, performed by Amaka Okafor & Christopher Adams and recorded with Prime Theatre. This playlist compiles these recordings.
