 5×15 featuring Jay Rayner, Matt Haig, Laura Bates and more

5 speakers, 15 minutes each

5×15: 5 exceptional speakers have 15 minutes each to take to the stage to inform, inspire and entertain. It’s a little known fact that restaurant critic Jay Rayner would take a piano to his desert island. This evening he speaks about jazz piano and hungry jazz. Eminent international lawyer Philippe Sands talks about his extraordinary Songs of Good and Evil – a production mixing music, images and text to explore the origins of modern justice and the fate of individuals and groups; Laura Bates tells us about the 80,000 women who contributed to the Everyday Sexism Project; best selling novelist Matt Haig gives us Reasons to Stay Alive and Pulitzer prize-winning photographer Lynsey Addario looks back on her ground-breaking work across the Middle East, South Asia, and Africa.
