The Kanneh-Masons are an extraordinarily musical family of seven siblings who spent lockdown together at their home in Nottingham and were filmed by BBC1's Imagine. Tonight we're joined by pianist Isata and cellist Sheku, who perform live from their home, and we also talk to their mother Kadie. Open air theatre performances with socially distanced audiences are allowed from tomorrow, and first out of the block is The Minack Theatre in Cornwall. Director Zoe Curnow talks about restarting her theatre with a one-man play. Last year’s Turner Prize was awarded not – as it usually would have been – to one artist but to all four finalists as a group. And this year the situation has changed again - Tate Britain announced that ten artists who will each receive one-off £10,000 bursaries. We’ll be interviewing all 10 here on Front Row and start tonight with Imran Perretta. David Mitchell's new novel Utopia Avenue, about a band in the 1960s, is reviewed by crime writer Mark Billingham and books journalist Sarah Shaffi. Presenter: Tom Sutcliffe Producer: Timothy Prosser Studio Manager: Matilda Macari Production Co-ordinator: Lizzie Harris
