An Evening With Philip Pullman and the stars of His Dark Materials
FANE Productions
To celebrate the 25th anniversary of Northern Lights, join the award-winning author Philip Pullman in conversation with people who have been influential in bringing the His Dark Materials trilogy to page and screen – plus readings from the books by actors from the acclaimed BBC/HBO series (actors’ names to be revealed soon).
Chaired by Krishnan Guru-Murthy (broadcast journalist and a specialist news presenter), Philip will be joined by Chris Wormell (illustrator of the new Northern Lights Illustrated Edition), Jane Tranter (co-founder of Bad Wolf and Executive Producer of His Dark Materials for BBC/HBO) and David Fickling (publisher of Philip Pullman for over 25 years).
Expect Philip to reveal secrets behind the landmark trilogy as well as an exclusive look at the creation of the new illustrations and footage from season two of His Dark Materials.
First published in 1995, and acclaimed as a modern masterpiece, Northern Lights has been fully-illustrated in colour by Chris Wormell for the 25th anniversary (published by Scholastic).
“After nourishment, shelter and companionship, stories are the thing we need most in the world.” Philip Pullman
