In just over a decade, Letters Live has gone from being one of the most talked-about shows in the UK to being a truly global phenomenon, captivating audiences in sold-out shows around the world. Beloved for bringing to life the intimacy, humour and raw emotion found in letters, each Letters Live show features a surprise all-star cast performing the unforgettable readings. Past line-ups have included Benedict Cumberbatch, Bryan Cranston, Olivia Colman, Taika Waititi, Cate Blanchett and Laurence Fishburne, to name just a few – plus remarkable musical performances from artists including Thom Yorke, David Byrne and Laura Mvula. Part of the Letters Live magic is that the phenomenal line-up for each show remains a closely guarded secret until the moment the performers step onto the stage. Profits from ticket revenue are donated to the National Literary Trust, who empower people with the literacy skills they need to succeed in life.
