Book lovers and TV buffs are in for an extraordinary treat this October featuring none other than multi-million bestselling author Heather Morris and Synchronicity Films’ MD and Creative Director, Claire Mundell.

This highly anticipated event will take place on Saturday, 26th October, from 1:30 PM to 4:30 PM in Glasgow with the venue soon to be announced.

Heather Morris, the phenomenal author behind the international Sunday Times and New York Times bestseller, The Tattooist of Auschwitz, will be making a rare appearance all the way from New Zealand, joining Claire Mundell, BAFTA award-winning Executive Producer of The Tattooist of Auschwitz, and MD of Synchronicity Films for an in-depth conversation that is not to be missed.

The duo will delve into the magic behind the scenes of the SKY Original adaptation of Morris’s bestselling novel, offering insights into the journey from page to screen, including the intricacies of script development, casting choices, music composition, and the storytelling that continues to captivate audiences worldwide.

This exclusive event promises to be a unique opportunity in Scotland for fans of The Tattooist of Auschwitz, the gripping Emmy nominated television series, inspired by the memories of Holocaust survivor and former Auschwitz prisoner, Lali Sokolov. The series has become a global sensation, trending in the Top 5 on streaming platforms in countries such as Argentina, Belize, Mexico, and Peru.
With Harvey Keitel, Jonah Hauer King and Melanie Lynskey leading a stellar cast, and a soundtrack featuring music by legends like Hans Zimmer and Barbra Streisand, the series has brought Heather Morris’s powerful story to life.

In addition to the conversation with Morris and Mundell, attendees are encouraged to participate in the beloved Bookface Sip & Swap tradition.
