About the event
From See Tickets's listing
Much-loved actor, author and screenwriter, Greg Wise, will be joining us to chat about his new book Grief Talking. Greg will share his personal experiences with loss, and encourage us to be more open in our own. The actor whose film and TV credits include Sense and Sensibility and The Crown, and who is of course married to fellow actor Emma Thompson, said, "I am a being formed by loss, and I am uniquely more alive, more grateful, more compassionate, more understanding of my capabilities, more loving, more connected as a result of it. But I had to do the work... I don't think I ever really felt joy until I faced into my grief..." Greg is able to offer solace and understanding through his own moving stories. He advocates for a change in our modern suppressive culture of mourning. Instead, we should allow ourselves and others an open healthy processing of grief so we can become kinder, more connected and experience happiness again. About the Book Grief shapes us but we can learn from it. Through honesty, vulnerability and ritual we can navigate the chaotic, messy journey of death. Wise explores traumatic grief - the sudden drowning of a close friend in his twenties; intergenerational trauma and the sorrow that can be passed down through families; the emotional aftermath of his sister's death from cancer; and anticipatory grief - the pain of infertility and failed IVF when cherished hopes are dashed and we grieve a loss before it is born.…

How I list these
Everything here comes from the feeds of the ticket and experience sellers I work with: See Tickets. That's a lot, but it isn't everything on in Bradford: venues that sell their own tickets, or sell through sellers whose feeds don't reach me, won't show here yet.
Events are in date order, and a show on several dates appears once, on its first, with how many more there are. Things to do any day start with the seller's own UK picks, then those rated 4.5 or more, guided before self-guided, shared before private, then by rating and price. Every ticket link is an ad: if you buy, the seller may pay me commission, at no cost to you. Commission never changes what's listed or the order.
A price is the seller's lowest for one ticket (or one person, when two book a tour together), as its feed gives it, and I've checked on each seller's own pages what it covers. See Tickets's includes its booking fee, and it adds an order fee to each booking (£1.25 to £4 on the events I checked), which I show beside the price. Where I haven't checked what a seller's price covers, or its feed is more than a day and a half old, I show no price at all.
I don't list resold tickets for football in England and Wales, or for any match in a UEFA or FIFA competition: selling or advertising them without the organiser's permission is a crime (section 166 of the Criminal Justice and Public Order Act 1994). Times are UK times. Events change and sell out, so the seller's page is the final word.
