Michael Frayn: Stage Directions – Writing on Theatre; with Roger Allam and Peter Forbes

This new collection charts Michael Frayn’s path into the theatre – from the ‘doubtful beginnings’ of his childhood to his subsequent scorn as a young man and, surprisingly late in life, his reluctant conversion to the stage.

Michael Frayn is joined by special guests Roger Allam and Peter Forbes for a one-off reading of a new short Frayn 'playlet'.

This Platform is followed by a booksigning
