British screen legend Jane Horrocks will give a talk to students on her visit to the University of Salford.
The 'Rise and Fall of Little Voice' star will be in conversation with writer Jim Cartwright – who wrote the original play from which the Oscar nominated film was adapted.
The pair will talk about Jane’s career in film and television, from comedies such as 'Absolutely Fabulous' to animated features such as 'Corpse Bride'. Hosting the event is the Jim Cartwright Drama Studio, based in Chorley.
Jane, who recently appeared alongside Rob Bryden and Rupert Graves in comedy drama 'Swimming With Men', will then hold a question and answer session.
Jim Cartwright said: “Jane Horrocks has burnt a bright trail from stage to television to film, and rightly has become one of the most recognisable faces – and voices – of the British acting world. The kind of insights she will be able to give those who are setting off on an acting career are second to none.”
