Friends of the Bodleian Annual Lecture 2020 with Laura Wade and Samuel West

The 2020 Friends of the Bodleian Annual Lecture was an exclusive online conversation between Laura Wade, Olivier Award winning playwright, and Samuel West, actor and director.
The pair discussed their collaboration on Wade’s critically-acclaimed adaptation of Jane Austen’s unfinished novel, The Watsons, the manuscript of which was acquired by the Bodleian with the generous support of the Friends in 2011.
Richard Ovenden OBE, Bodley’s Librarian, was the chair for the evening and invited questions from the audience.
