On Sunday December 7 there will be a charity concert at the Union Theatre - GIGGIN4GOOD: A MERRY LITTLE CHRISTMAS - featuring Christmas songs old and new, including a brand new song written by Rob Eyles & me - performed by Jordan Lee Davies (Les Miserables, Molly Wobbly, The Secret Garden, BBC's The Voice).

The cast includes Julie Atherton (Therese Raquin, The Hired Man, Avenue Q, The Last 5 Years), Jennifer DiNoia (the current West End Elphaba, who has also played the role on Broadway, in the US Tour and in Sydney & Seoul), Celinde Schoenmaker (current Fantine in Les Mis) and BWW Award Understudy Of The Year Nominee Carolyn Maitland (Miss Saigon, From Here To Eternity, Kiss Me Kate) - plus an array of amazing vocal talent from West End & Off-West End musical theatre.

The show will raise money for two very worthy causes - Great Ormond St. Hospital and Child Poverty Action Group. Still some tickets left so book now! Details in the BWW article below:

In case anyone may be interested - here's a video of Jordan Lee Davies performing A CHRISTMAS EVE SONG (music by Rob Eyles, lyrics by me) at the Union Theatre last night.

Here's another video I filmed on Sunday night at the Union - the amazingly talented and charismatic singer/songwriter Alex James Ellison, performing his own song CHOCOLATE BAR:

Alex is also a quite brilliant actor - which you can witness first hand if you head along to see the wonderful APARTMENT 40C at the London Theatre Workshop sometime in the next couple of weeks.
