Dame Maggie Smith's Final Interview with Kathleen Turner (FULL EVENT) | FANE

Two unlikely friends. One night of unparalleled conversation. Remember the late Dame Maggie Smith with this special event from 2021, we believe to be her last ever recorded interview.

Kathleen Turner met Maggie Smith in 2000 while they were performing in adjacent theatres in London’s West End – Maggie in The Lady in the Van at the Queens Theatre, and Kathleen in The Graduate at the Gielgud Theatre. A series of pre/post show dinners evolved into a friendship which has endured the intervening 20 years.

From either side of the Atlantic, the two iconic actresses share stories of their unusual childhoods and their remarkable careers on stage and screen. From The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie to The War of the Roses, from Friends to Harry Potter, expect laughter (and perhaps a few tears) along with stories you have never heard before.

With two Oscars, five Golden Globes and three Tonys between them, spend an evening with Kathleen and Maggie as they compare notes and divulge secrets from two extraordinary careers.

Dame Maggie Smith and Kathleen Turner In Conversation with Gyles Brandreth was originally broadcast on Thu 8 Apr 2021, in support of The Royal Theatrical Fund.
