Description

Join us to celebrate 5x15's fifteenth birthday!

To mark the occasion, we'll be back at The Tabernacle in February for a very special evening, featuring a truly stellar line-up of speakers: Harriet Walter, John Crace, Jonathan Freedland, Theresa Lola and Chloe Dalton.

Expect captivating stories about Shakespeare's women, as reinterpreted by a beloved classical actress; the inspiring work of a German Jewish author writing during the Second World War; poetry and diasporic experience; a transformative encounter with an injured hare in the countryside and a satirical look at British politics - from the point of view of Herbie the dog.

John Crace has been the Guardian's political sketch writer for the last ten years and is one of the paper's most loved columnists. He has also written about twenty books on everything from cricket, football, TV, literature, politics and - not forgetting - himself. In January 2024 he was awarded an honorary doctorate by Bath Spa University in recognition of his literary satire. His most recent book is: Taking the Lead a satirical memoir from the eyes of his beloved dog, Herbie.
