Lionel Digby | 35 Years of Film, TV and Theatre Costumery 

Join us for a networking event without the early start! Artizan Gallery welcomes you to a special edition of Cocktails and Conversation in association with the English Riviera Film Festival. 

This will be the first event kicking off this years festival where we'll be welcoming guest speaker Lionel Digby. Many in Torbay will know Lionel as a legendary force in the local music scene in the 60s and 70s, bringing superstar acts from Pink Floyd to Jimi Hendrix to the English Riviera. But move forward to the 1980s and Lionel had gone from rock and roll to the big screen and was working on big budget films, TV and theatre in costume design!

A 35 year career that is still going strong has seen him work on the Oscar Winning Kings Speech starring Colin Firth, Legends starring Tom Hardy and with the likes of Oliver Reed, Julie Walters and Brian Blessed, to name a few of his achievements. This exclusive evening will focus on this lesser known area of Lionel's career where he will share anecdotes from the projects he's worked on and show a variety of images and articles of costume from his extensive career.
