From Spitting Image to Stella Street, and from Gangs of New York to The Iron Lady and recent box-office hit Filth , the incomparable John Sessions has constantly proven himself as one of the most versatile and accomplished Scottish actors of his generation. He made his film debut in Roger Christian’s The Sender (1982) and has the rare distinction of being directed by both Martin Scorsese and Robert De Niro (The Good Shepherd ), of playing Ted Heath and Harold Wilson, of sharing the screen with Al Pacino, Christopher Plummer, Kenneth Branagh and Anthony Hopkins and many others. Effortlessly witty, keenly intelligent and an amazing mimic, John Sessions will discuss his career and take questions from the audience in this special event.
