“There is something so sincere and so utterly simple about Uninvited Guests' piece that you can't help but fall in love with it"
★★★★★ The Guardian
“I highly recommend watching Love Letters at Home. A real tonic for our current climate, bursting with truth, humanity and love.”
A performance created from your song dedications and declarations of love, past and present, join us online via Zoom for Love Letters at Home as we raise our glasses to long lost loves and current lovers, to mums and dads, and to absent friends.
In response to our desire for connection in an age of distance, Uninvited Guests brings you a completely digital, wholly personal and wonderfully live experience in Love Letters at Home.
In Uninvited Guests’ signature performance style, Love Letters at Home shifts between theatre and feeling like a real social event. Songs and stories gathered from the audience are presented together as a shared declaration of love: toasts are made, speeches are given, dances are danced, for you and with you.
Before the show, you will be invited to send in music requests and to write dedications to those you love or care about, and these are worked into the performance. Each show is unique to the group of people in the audience each night – their memories, their current and past loves or friendships, their emotions, laid bare for everyone to witness, acknowledge and support.
An antidote to isolation, join us online via Zoom as we raise our glasses to long lost loves and current lovers, to mums and dads, and to absent friends.
Love Letters at Home has been commissioned by First Art, a Creative People and Places project, as part of its Go the Distance remote festival for audiences in Ashfield, Mansfield, Bolsover and North East Derbyshire.
This performance is presented by Coombe Farm Studios generously supported by the Parish of Dittisham Charity - helping projects that support our local environment and wellbeing and by Sally & Edward Benthall.
This performance is available as a captioned performance if required.
During lockdown in 2020 Love Letters at Home was toured virtually to Melbourne, Mexico, New York, L.A, Arizona, Dublin and numerous venues and festivals across the UK.
“It proved that digital theatre could have a lot of heart, intimacy and warmth - things which are usually absent. Also made us feel less like we were missing out on the “real thing”, more like it worked within its new form, than with most digital offerings.”
“Tenderly simple and uplifting participatory theatre. It was like nothing I’ve ever engaged with before, a unique chance to share music and thoughts on the people we love.”
