Reach For The Stars - Paul Read

For the last 25 years Paul has established himself as one of the West End's most accomplished
Principal Dressers. He has cared for some of the industry's biggest names including Dame Diana
Rigg, Bill Nighy, Paul O'Grady, Stephen Rea, David Schwimmer, Rob Lowe, Ben Wishaw, Mathew
Rhys, Juliette Lewis, Dominic Cooper and the celebrities and dancers on 'Strictly Come Dancing'.

As well as the West End, Paul has also worked at the National Theatre, the Royal Opera House,
Sadler's Wells, the Royal Shakespeare Company, the O2 and several of the biggest National
Concert Arenas.  His work was featured on a documentary at the Victoria & Albert museum and at the Lincoln
Centre, New York. 

He is constantly asked to write a book about this work and is currently developing his talks into a
one man theatrical show, which he hopes to tour nationally next year.

Paul will be sharing his vast experience, stories and anecdotes with us today.
