AARO - **Event Date Change**

Dear AARO Members,

Further to my earlier request to save the date of March 12th, please amend your calendars as we have had to postpone the event to the afternoon of Saturday April 23rd.

The event will be an exclusive Q & A session with Tom Fontana, the creator and executive producer of the new Borgia TV series, currently shooting in Prague. Mr. Fontana began his successful career as a writer on the US series St. Elsewhere before going on to write and produce several successful TV shows, such as The Bedford Diaries, Homicide: Life on the Street, The Philanthropist and Oz. 

The Q & A will be preceded by a screening of Mr. Fontana's TV movie Strip Search, an all-star drama looking at personal freedom and security in a post-911 world.

The event will take place during the afternoon and early evening, final details will be provided a little closer to the date.
