Members are advised that there will be an additional meeting on this year’s programme. On Wednesday 3rd May at 18.30 at Lumen.

Our speaker will be Jonathan Holloway, an acclaimed playwright and theatre director. Jonathan has written and published a version of Nicholas Nickleby which toured throughout the UK. He also adapted and directed versions of A Christmas Carol and A Tale of Two Cities (which is currently being produced in Cantonese in Hong Kong having previously appeared at the Edinburgh Festival in 2016). More recently, Jonathan wrote a new adaptation of The Signalman which was broadcast on BBC Radio 4 on Christmas Day starring Samuel West and James Purefoy, and he will be directing this as a stage play in Oxford this March.
