A night of sumptuous cabaret with storytelling and musical performances from Palestinian-Israeli singer Mira Awad, comedian Ruby Wax, author and poet Michael Rosen, and more. Join us for a cabaret like no other. We’ve gathered six of the most exciting artists and thinkers around to share insight and inspiration in an unforgettable night of entertainment.

A storyteller beloved by the nation, Michael Rosen shares with us the lessons learned on the road to recovery from COVID and what it means to live well during the darkest of days. Sunday Times best-selling author and comic Ruby Wax shares with us a frank and honest account of her mental health journey.

The psychologist Bruce Hood will take us on an extraordinary journey through human history to share with us the science of happiness. Get under the skin of the era that shook modern thinking forever with Andrea Wulf as she introduces us to the first Romantics – a revolutionary group of friends whose ideas shaped the way we lead our lives today.

How do you mark a life? For memoirist Alba Arikha, through words and music. She’ll be sharing her personal pilgrimage through the lives closest to her, and what they can teach us about humanity. A voice that spoke for a nation, the Palestinian-Israeli singer Mira Awad once represented Israel in the Eurovision song contest in 2009 and now uses her gift to engender peace.

Whether you love philosophy, music, or simply the stories that shape us, this is a one-of-a-kind gathering of extraordinary minds that no-one should miss.
