Join your fellow Champions Circle members at GBH Studios for an exclusive preview screening of MASTERPIECE’s The Great Escaper!

Enjoy a cup of tea and a sweet treat before heading into Yawkey Theater for an extended preview of The Great Escaper ahead of its premiere on PBS, as well as a sneak peek at the upcoming season of All Creatures Great and Small andThe Forsytes. MASTERPIECE producer, Kathleen DiPerna will deliver a special introduction.

The Great Escaper, starring Michael Caine and the late Glenda Jackson, tells the true story of Bernard Jordan, who made global headlines in the summer of 2014. He had staged a “great escape” from his care home to join fellow war veterans on a beach in Normandy, commemorating their fallen comrades at the D-Day Landings 70th anniversary.
