We are thrilled to announce that we are partnering with Cunard on a very special show on Thursday 22nd January 2026, at the Queen Elizabeth Hall, Southbank Centre. Proceeds from ticket sales will be donated to The King’s Trust, supporting young people to transform their futures.
This special collaboration will celebrate the enduring art of letter writing, inspired by the calmness of sea travel and the human need to reflect, to write, and to stay connected.
Cunard’s ships have welcomed some of the world’s greatest writers, thinkers, and artists, from Noël Coward and Elizabeth Taylor to David Bowie, each finding inspiration in the rhythm of the ocean. Rooted in Cunard’s literary heritage, this partnership celebrates a tradition that has inspired travellers for over 185 years.
In partnership with Letters Live, the evening will revive this creative legacy, with distinguished performers bringing extraordinary letters, written at sea and beyond, to life, capturing the emotion, wit, and humanity of correspondence across time and how it continues to connect people across distance and generations.
Pre-sale goes live at 10am on Wednesday 10th December. Sign up to the Letters Live mailing list below by midnight on Tuesday 9th December to receive your early access code.
If you miss out, don’t worry! General sale will be live over on the Southbank Centre website 10am on Friday 12th December.
