Festival Forums

Festival Forums description

Our free Festival Forums featuring key AF creatives have a new host! David Marr has passed the baton to Breakfast with Papers favourite Tom Wright. Steeped as he is in the performing arts, Tom has the uncanny ability to be completely across just about any subject you care to name, so expect some really penetrating insights. Note the new early evening time, perfect to set your brains buzzing pre-show.
