In this special event, Louis Theroux will hand over the interviewer’s mic as he steps into the hot seat for a lively, free-flowing conversation. Celebrated for his unassuming charm and gentle interviewing style, Louis has spent decades exploring some of the worlds most intriguing subcultures, controversial topics and compelling personalities. His documentaries are marked by empathy, curiosity and uncovering the human stories at the heart of every subject.

From BAFTA-winning series Louis Theroux’s Weird Weekend to When Louis Met…. Louis’s documentaries have discussed complex and social issues, shining the light on human behaviours and beliefs, all in his own unique and charming manner.

Starting out on Michael Moore’s TV Nation after graduating from Oxford, Louis soon forged his own path with a series of groundbreaking documentaries. His feature-length film My Scientologoy Movie and his recent Louis Theroux podcast continue his tradition of thoughtful, in-depth storytelling with guests such as Marina Abramovic and Michael Palin.
