 | 20 Sep 2008 | | | 12:30 p.m. - 1:15 p.m. | | | | | Dame Ngaio Marsh was an acclaimed theatrical director and dramatist.
Off stage she was one of the “Queens of Golden Age detective fiction” alongside Agatha Christie, Dorothy Sayers and Margery Allingham. And her private life is every bit as thrilling as her fiction. Her biographer Joanne Drayton (art historian and author of biographies on Frances Hodgkins, Edith Collier and Rhona Haszard) is in conversation with another highly regarded theatrical practitioner, Simon Prast, to discuss this remarkable woman's life and work.
