Ian Kelly

The actor Ian Kelly, who appeared at the National in The Pitmen Painters, is also an author and historian. He returns to discuss his new book, Mr Foote’s Other Leg, the riotously true story of the one-legged comedian and ‘Oscar Wilde’ of the Georgian stage, Samuel Foote.

Andy de la Tour, Ryan Early, Lisa McGrillis, Nick Rowe and Milo Twomey will be joining him to read an extract from Foote's satire on Methodism and the Covent Garden sex trade, The Minor.

Chaired by Al Senter.
