An Evening with Marc Fennell: Stuff the British Stole

“With wit, empathy and unflinching honesty, Stuff The British Stole reveals the true stories behind remarkable objects in the world’s most celebrated museums and uncovers some uncomfortable truths behind the polite plaques. The human stories museums would rather we didn’t talk about.”  ABC

“In the days of the British Empire, things were taken that probably shouldn’t have been. So how come they’re still in museums, galleries and some much stranger places?” Penguin Books Australia

Join Marc Fennell, author of the bestselling book, creator of the hit podcast and host of the TV series live on stage for a mischievous conversation about history’s most hotly debated loot.

British museums are home to millions of fascinating objects. The trouble is a whole bunch of them were stolen in wildly dodgy ways. A chance encounter with one of these items prompted journalist Marc Fennell to ask: ‘What is that? And how the hell did it get here?’

The answer was so gloriously weird that it sent him on a globetrotting adventure, investigating the most audacious criminal enterprise in history – the British Empire.

Go behind-the-scenes for an ‘off record’ sneaky peek into the backstories of how he was able to get around filming restrictions, denied access and a global pandemic to produce the award-winning Stuff The British Stole.
