– A Night at the Theatre –
Damian attended the special Letters Live fundraising event and after party in aid of The KOKO Foundation at The House of KOKO on Thursday, November 7, 2024 in Camden – London, England. Damian read a letter by crime novelist John le Carré to his wife and at the end of the evening, he joined others on stage to dance.
It was a star-studded evening of unforgettable storytelling and powerful music performances. For over a decade, Letters Live has welcomed famous figures to the stage to read historical, emotive, poginant, personal or comical letters, bringing them to life through powerful performances. This special, intimate evening at KOKO was filled with unique readings and musical performances, and a silent auction alongside the live entertainment.
The event also celebrated the announcement of BAFTA, Olivier and EMMY award-winning actor Benedict Cumberbatch as their new global ambassador for the KOKO Foundation. To mark the occasion they partnered with Letters Live to host a special fundraising edition called ‘A Night at The Theatre.’
Others in attendance were Cate Blanchett, Minnie Driver, FKA Twigs, Richard Gadd, Marisa Abela, Ghetts, Benedict Cumberbatch, Idris Elba, Wyclef Jean, Taika Waititi, Olly Bengough, CEO and Founder of KOKO, and Sophia Pasetti, CEO of The KOKO Foundation.
