Broadcast live from London’s Royal Festival Hall comes an unmissable evening for any fan of John le Carré’s work. In this celebration, the author discusses the full breadth of his career and reflects on the continuing story of his most famous creation, the tubby, bespectacled spy, George Smiley. Featuring readings from his new novel A Legacy of Spies, and a rare question and answer session, ‘John Le Carre: An Evening with George Smiley’ will be an opportunity to experience the author direct and in his own words. The show is appearing at The Edge in Much Wenlock on Thursday 7 September at 7.45pm; tickets are £10-12 and there’s more information at edgeartscentre.com.
