Location – ATRiuM, Cardiff

David Rose, one of the most significant figures in the history of British film and television drama will be visiting the ATRiuM in May.

The evening will start with a glass of wine at 5.30 in the ATRiuM then moving to the Auditorium where a compilation of David’s work will be shown, followed by an on-stage discussion and question and answer session ending at 8pm.

During a long and distinguished career in drama, first in the theatre and then in film and television, David Rose has been involved with a quite remarkable list of projects, as producer, executive producer or commissioner, which reads like a history of ‘quality’ British television drama, and latterly feature film at both the BBC and Channel Four where he was the first head of film.

In a remarkable career David Rose has worked with and helped nurture some of the key figures in British film and television of the last forty years including Troy Kennedy Martin, Ken Loach, Alan Plater, Willy Russell, Alan Bleasdale, Alan Clarke, David Hare, Mike Leigh, Neil Jordan, Peter Greenaway and Stephen Frears.

The event is free and open to all. If you would like to attend contact Naomi Wells at njwells[at]glam[dot]ac[dot]uk
