Dune 2, Brian Bilston, Angelica Kauffman RA, Nachtland

SeΓ΅n Williams and Sam Marlowe review Dune 2, Angelica Kauffman's paintings and the Patrick Marber-directed play Nachtland. Plus Brian Bilston marks 29 February with a special poem.

This week sees the release of the much anticipated Dune part 2, the sequel to 2021’s part 1, a series based on Frank Herbert’s 1960’s sci fi classic. We also look at Marius von Mayenburg’s play Nachtland directed by Patrick Marber at the Young Vic in London and Angelica Kauffman: the Swiss artist finally gets a solo exhibition at the Royal Academy of Arts, more than 250 years after she was one of its founding members. Seán Williams and Sam Marlowe review.

Plus, the 'unofficial poet Laureate of Twitter' Brian Bilston has broken some of his anonymity to go on the road with Henry Normal. To mark 29 February, Bilston reads An Extra Day from his collection Days Like These.
