Phoenix Rising

Phoenix Rising

Phoenix Rising presents a fresh take on D.H. Lawrence’s early life. In a series of animated snapshots, Paul Slack as Lawrence reflects on the events and personalities which shaped his early years including the stormy relationship between his parents; his own, frequently miserable, schooldays; the happiness he found with the Chambers family; his work as a schoolmaster and the beginnings of his literary career.

Paul Slack has performed with theatre companies including the RSC, Royal National Theatre, and the Donmar Warehouse. His film career includes Love Actually and Heartland, whilst later this year he will appear in two major films – Fallen and political thriller Alleycats.
“A performance of great skill and dexterity by an extremely gifted and talented actor.” BBC
