The chance to hear the playback of a newly recorded radio drama High Cockalorum, written for Radio 4 by Bradford’s Jeremy Dyson and featuring fellow League of Gentlemen member Mark Gatiss.

There will also be a Q&A with Jeremy and Mark, hosted by Director Nadia Molinari.
High Cockalorum is set in Jeremy’s home city of Bradford in 1978. Inspired by a true story, a touching, funny encounter between a Hollywood superstar, James Mason, and a humble Yorkshire man, thrown together by circumstance. A meditation on fame, success and what ultimately matters.
