In collaboration with the British Library and the critically-acclaimed production of A Day in the Death of Joe Egg, Trafalgar Studios is very excited to be presenting a celebration of Peter Nichols’ works in this special event on Wednesday 27th November.

Directed by his grandson, George Nichols, and with special guest stars yet to be confirmed, we will take a look at Peter Nichols’ vast literary contribution with excerpts from his much loved television and stage plays including PromenadeThe National HealthForget-Me-Not-Lane and Poppy, as well as passages from his personal diaries and rare unproduced plays, kindly provided by the British Library.

With thanks to the British Library Collections Trust for supporting this event. The full Archive and Oral History of Peter Nichols is accessible at the British Library for the public to view.

This celebration of the wonderful Peter Nichols was a simply perfect tribute. All the actors, lead by Roger Allam, performed the dialogue beautifully. It was by no means a full house, but all those of us in this great theatre were thoroughly entertained. Thank you.
