The Actors Centre has announced the line-up for the relaunch of their Off The Record series, which will be hosted at the Tristan Bates Theatre on Friday lunchtimes.

The first event of the series – which will see conversations with a range of actors – will feature Everybody's Talking About Jamie stars Josie Walker and John McCrea on 19 January.

This will be followed by Samantha Spiro and Jennifer Saunders – currently appearing in Lady Windermere's Fan at the Vaudeville Theatre – on 2 March.

The final session will be with Simon Callow on 23 March. Callow recently performed Frank McGuinness' adaptation of Oscar Wilde's De Profundis, also part of Dominic Dromgoole's Wilde Season at the Vaudeville.

All events run for an hour from 1pm at the Tristan Bates Theatre in London. The discussions will focus on career stories, processes and what happens behind the scenes.

Tickets range from £20 – £25, with £15 reduced rate for Actors Centre members, and can be purchased from the Tristan Bates Theatre.
