Blue Plaques Talk Back

Join us for an extraordinary afternoon celebrating Chelsea’s rich cultural history at this exclusive Blue Plaques Talk Back Live event at the Royal Court. This unique theatrical experience brings together the art of storytelling with historical insight, as acclaimed actors and performers breathe life into the remarkable stories behind Chelsea’s most prestigious Blue Plaques.

Each segment of the event will feature specially commissioned performances where big names present vivid, intimate portraits of the extraordinary individuals who once called Chelsea home. These compelling dramatisations will be followed by panel discussions, where the performers are joined by distinguished historians, cultural experts, and individuals with personal connections to these iconic figures.

Among the luminaries being celebrated are reggae legend Bob Marley, Irish author, poet, and playwright Oscar Wilde, and dancer and ballet teacher, Princess Seraphine Astafieva.
