Description
When he wasn’t entertaining millions through his wildly popular radio show, American comedian Fred Allen could often be found writing delightfully daft letters to family, fans, and the people closest to him. In the summer of 1939, Allen wrote to his great friend Joe Kelly.
Toby Jones joined us to read this hilarious letter at Letters Live in association with Cunard at London's Southbank Centre in January 2026.
