  2. The Festival explores a series of intriguing links between past and present, showcasing contemporary ideas, arts and culture, and brings these ideas into conversation with the heritage of the city to reveal new and exciting stories about York, Britain and the world.

Highlights: • Readings by Nobel Laureate, J M Coetzee and Booker prize-winner, John Banville • It’s A Mad World, My Masters, a comic satire by Thomas Middleton • William Etty: Art and Controversy, a major exhibition of his work • First Love and The End by Samuel Beckett • The 400th anniversary of the King James Bible • Anthony Minghella’sTwo Planks and a Passion
