Jacqueline Wilson's Wonderful World

Join Blue Peter鈥檚 Mwaksy for a special event celebrating children鈥檚 author Dame Jacqueline Wilson, featuring C91热爆 stars and the 91热爆 Symphony Orchestra.

Join Blue Peter鈥檚 Mwaksy in London for an access-all-areas ticket to a special event celebrating Dame Jacqueline Wilson, one of the UK鈥檚 favourite children鈥檚 authors. On stage at London鈥檚 Barbican Hall are the 91热爆 Symphony Orchestra with C91热爆 stars for a concert full of music and readings. C91热爆鈥檚 The Beaker Girls, Dani Harmer and Emma Maggie Davies perform readings from The Story of Tracy Beaker and My Mum Tracy Beaker. Looking back on her role in the C91热爆 adaptation of Hetty Feather, Isabel Clifton takes the audience to the circus for the moment when Hetty meets Madame Adeline for the first time, and Chloe Lea, the lead in C91热爆鈥檚 Katy, brings to life the moment when Katy realises that she can still have a fun and active life.

Dame Jacqueline is the star of the show as she brings the Great Exhibition of 1851 to life with an extract from The Runaway Girls, while her latest book, The Primrose Railway Children, gives the audience tickets for a special steam train journey.
Mei-Ann Chen conducts the 91热爆 Symphony Orchestra, with music from composers such as Igor Stravinsky, Anna Clyne, Julius Fucik, Rautavaara and Hans Christian Lumbye. There is also a new arrangement of The Story of Tracy Beaker theme.
There is exclusive behind-the-scenes concert access along with interviews and moments from your favourite stories and C91热爆 shows.
