In Conversation With Duncan Lustig-Prean

The Lantern Theatre in Brighton is hosting an event titled 'In Conversation With Duncan Lustig-Prean' on the 8th and 9th of May 2026. Both sessions are scheduled to begin at 19:00. The evening is structured as an informal discussion moderated by Nigel Wrench, a former BBC Radio 4 presenter. The format is designed to be conversational, incorporating humour and providing space for audience questions throughout the session.

Duncan Lustig-Prean is a figure with a background in the military and social activism. He is recognised for leading the campaign to allow LGBT individuals to serve in the Armed Forces, as well as for his research into racism within the military and his work regarding the restoration of medals for women who served. In addition to his military career, he currently holds the position of chair for the Brighton Fringe. The conversation is expected to touch upon these aspects of his professional history and his ongoing involvement in the local arts community.

Tickets for the event are priced at £10.00, although it is noted that this price is a guide and may be subject to change. The proceeds from the ticket sales are donated to the Brighton Fringe charity. The venue is located at 77 St James' Street, Brighton, BN2 1PA. While there is no specific age restriction stated, the nature of the discussion—focusing on social history, military experience, and activism—is generally aimed at an adult audience. Those interested in attending can purchase tickets directly through the theatre’s website or via standard ticketing platforms. The event provides an opportunity to hear directly from Lustig-Prean regarding his experiences and his current role within the Brighton cultural landscape.
