Live Performance
Avoiding the normal stand-up circuit for more character-based comedy, including an appearance in the Edinburgh and touring show The Sitcom Trials, Hart has written her own theatre material for the Edinburgh Fringe. Her one-woman shows include Miranda Hart – Throbs, It's All About Me and Miranda Hart's House Party. She also performed in Alecky Blythe's 2006 play Cruising at the Bush Theatre.
In 2010, she and six other TV celebrities raised over £1 million for the charity Sport Relief by cycling from John O'Groats to Land's End. Miranda also presented part of Sport Relief 2012 which ended in David Walliams dancing semi-naked with her to Abba's "Dancing Queen".
She was among the performers at the Diamond Jubilee concert held outside Buckingham Palace on 4 June 2012.
Hart will embark on her first tour of the UK and Ireland in 2014, with tickets going on sale from 17 December 2012.

Famous quotes containing the words live and/or performance:
“I do believe that the outward and the inward life correspond; that if any should succeed to live a higher life, others would not know of it; that difference and distance are one. To set about living a true life is to go on a journey to a distant country, gradually to find ourselves surrounded by new scenes and men; and as long as the old are around me, I know that I am not in any true sense living a new or a better life.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Kind are her answers,
But her performance keeps no day;
Breaks time, as dancers,
From their own music when they stray.”
—Thomas Campion (1567–1620)
