DICKENS on SCREEN, BFI Southbank's Unprecedented
PRESS RELEASE 12/08 DICKENS ON SCREEN AT BFI SOUTHBANK IN FEBRUARY AND MARCH 2012 DICKENS ON SCREEN, BFI Southbank’s unprecedented retrospective of film and TV adaptations, moves into February and March and continues to explore how the work of one of Britain’s best loved storytellers has been adapted and interpreted for the big and small screens – offering the largest retrospective of Dickens on film and television ever staged. February 7 marks the 200th anniversary of Charles Dickens’ birth and BFI Southbank will host a celebratory evening in partnership with Film London and The British Council featuring the world premiere of Chris Newby’s Dickens in London, the innovative and highly distinctive adaptation of five radio plays by Michael Eaton that incorporates animation, puppetry and contemporary footage, and a Neil Brand score. The day will also feature three newly commissioned short films inspired by the man himself. Further highlights in February include a special presentation of Christine Edzard’s epic film version of Little Dorrit (1988) that will reunite some of the cast and crew members including Derek Jacobi, a complete screening of the rarely seen 1960 BBC production of Barnaby Rudge, as well as day long screenings of the definitive productions of Hard Times (1977) and Martin Chuzzlewit (1994). In addition, there will be the unique opportunity to experience all eight hours of the RSC’s extraordinary 1982 production of Nicholas Nickleby, including a panel discussion with directors Trevor Nunn and John Caird, actor David Threlfall and its adaptor, David Edgar. Saving some of the best for last, the season concludes in March with a beautiful new restoration of the very rare Nordisk version of Our Mutual Friend (1921) and a two-part programme of vintage, American TV adaptations of Dickens - most of which have never been screened in this country before and feature legendary Hollywood stars. -

MANCHESTER LITERATURE FESTIVAL 2015 12—25 October
MANCHESTER LITERATURE FESTIVAL 2015 12—25 OctoBer Principal Sponsor Welcome Manchester Literature Festival is ten years young this year and like most ten year olds we are super excited about our birthday celebrations. We’ve put together an extra special bumper edition, inviting back many of our favourite writers from the past decade and hand-picking some of the most gifted emerging storytellers, destined to make big literary waves in the coming decade. Melvyn Bragg and Robert Harris explore power, politics and humanity through the lens of history, whilst Margaret Atwood and Sarah Hall present disturbing visions of the future in their new novels. Paul Mason discusses what a post-capitalist world might look like and, in our new literature and landscape strand of events, writers reflect on our relationship with nature and the earth. Elif Shafak delivers this year’s Gaeia Manchester Sermon and Joanne Harris presents a specially commissioned Writer’s Manifesto. We bring words and music together through some unique collaborations with manchester jazz festival and Manchester Camerata, and singer songwriter Kathryn Williams performs songs from her new album Hypoxia inspired by Syliva Plath. In much anticipated literary re-imaginings, Anthony Horowitz introduces us to his new James Bond novel Trigger Mortis and Jeanette Winterson launches her retelling of Shakespeare’s A Winters’ Tale. We explore the legacy of literary icons Saul Bellow, John le Carré, George Eliot, Elizabeth Gaskell and WB Yeats; and champion pioneering women Eleanor Marx, Sophia Duleep Singh and Virginia Woolf. Our ever popular literary tours explore the haunts of Manchester’s literati, and allow you to enter the pages of much loved novels Love on the Dole and Wuthering Heights.
