11-year-old anti-bullying campaigner Charlie Kristensen will hold a charity fundraising gala at the Actors’ Church in London on 31 October, featuring an all-star West End line-up.

Fundraising for Acting for Others and the National Deaf Children’s Society, #CheerUpCharlie – The Show will be hosted by Ben Stock and Hilary O’Neil, with musical direction by Tom Knowles.

Kristensen’s #CheerUpCharlie campaign started in 2019, after he was severely bullied for 18 months partially due to his love of performing.

This remarkable young man now also hosts his own online chat show ‘Musical Chairs’, as well as fundraising and campaigning to raise awareness of bullying.
