Classworks Theatre in association with The ADC Theatre, Cambridge present What Is Scenography? A talk by Pamela Howard.

A lecture, with practical aspects, for all those who are involved as designers, actors, directors, costume makers ­ and not forgetting the vital ingredient of spectators who complete the event of theatre making.

Pamela Howard has an international reputation as scenographer, director and theatre maker. During her tenure at the University of the Arts London (Central St. Martins College of Art) she set up the prestigious International MA in Scenography and is frequently invited to work with students all over the world. She is a visionary and dynamic teacher and writer and her book, What is Scenography? ­ now in its second edition has become a seminal textbook for students. Pamela has recently returned from the Czech Republic where she was commissioned to direct and design the opera The Marriage by Bohuslav Martinu. She will be returning there next year to direct and design Janacek's opera The Excursions of Mr. Broucek. In 2008, she was awarded the OBE for services to drama.
