Surprise! 📖✨ This evening, The Queen made a surprise appearance at the Royal Festival Hall in London, reading a historic letter written by Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother, as part of ‘Letters Live’. ‘Letters Live’ is a live celebration of the enduring power of literary correspondence. Each show always features a completely different array of great performers, reading remarkable letters written over the centuries and from around the world. Audiences attending Letters Live never know who is going to take to the stage or what letter they are going to bring alive. Her Majesty participated in tonight’s show alongside other cast members including Jessie Buckley, Simon Callow, Olivia Colman, Benedict Cumberbatch, Dame Harriet Walter, Rob Rinder, Sara Pascoe, and more. Tonight’s show will raise money for @Literacy_Trust, of which Her Majesty is Patron.
