The Southbank center has organised a special night that will give solidarity and support to the people of Ukraine.
Slava Ukraini is set to be a night filled with music, poetry, and spoken word performed by both Ukrainian and British artists performing live and via broadcast from Ukraine.
The event is ticketed with all profits raised from ticket sales donated to Disasters Emergency Committee’s (DEC’s) Ukraine Humanitarian Appeal.
The event takes place on Tuesday, March 22 in Queen Elizabeth Hall.
The night will see some of the biggest current names in the entertainment world, with Bafta winner Ben Whishaw (This Is Going To Hurt) set to do a reading, as well as Tony Award-winning Jonathan Pryce.
The British stars will also be joined by Ukraine artists such as Kyiv-born Yuriy Yurchuk who performed the role of Marcello in Puccini’s La Boheme last summer at the Royal Opera House and Kharviv-born pianist Dinara Klinton who has performed previously at the Royal Festival Hall.
As well as many more acts already announced, even more are set to be revealed ahead of the show on Tuesday evening.
Mark Ball, the Southbank Centre’s Artistic Director, added, "I’d like to thank all of the participating artists, the Ukrainian Institute in London and the British Council for their time and willingness to support the DEC’s Ukraine Humanitarian Appeal.
"We hope this event can make a difference to help people in Ukraine and those seeking sanctuary across its borders, and that it reminds us too of our responsibilities to refugees and displaced peoples from across the world."
The show starts at 8pm and ends 9.30pm and you can buy tickets now for £25 via the website.
