Alan Bennett to be broadcast around the world...

Alan Bennett's latest play will be broadcast live across screens in the UK and Europe. 'The Habit of Art', currently showing at the National Theatre, is Bennett's first play since 'The History Boys' in 2004, and depicts an imaginary meeting between poet W.H. Auden and Benjamin Britten. Actor Richard Griffiths stars in the leading role; a role originally filled by Michael Gambon, before he was forced to withdraw through ill-health. The April 22nd performance will also be shown around the world as soon as possible.
