The star line-up has been announced for the first Monday Night at the Apollo concert at London’s Apollo Theatre on 24 May, which will also be livestreamed via Thespie.

Hosted by Greg Barnett and with musical direction by George Dyer, Aimie Atkinson (Six, Pretty Woman), Cassidy Janson (&Juliet, Beautiful), Lucie Jones (Waitress, Rent), Cedric Neal (Chess,Mowtown the Musical) and Julian Ovenden (South Pacific, Downton Abbey) will appear in the intimate night of performance and conversation. Line-ups for future concerts will be revealed soon.

Producers Greg Barnett and Hugh Summers said: “We’re excited to be announcing the first of our all-star line-ups for Monday Night At The Apollo.  We have five of British Theatre’s best performers joining us for this night to celebrate the re-opening of our wonderful industry and we simply cannot wait to be out on stage performing in front of a live audience. We are thrilled that all three performances will also still be live-streamed to viewers at home via Thespie.com. The industry faces huge challenges in its recovery and we still hope to be able to raise funds for the charity ‘Acting For Others’ to support the thousands of freelancers who continue to be hit hardest as our sector begins to slowly reawaken. Theatre and its audiences know how vital it will be to support each other on the road to recovery and in these seemingly crucial final months, we ask your support, kindness, and most of all your theatrical presence, as we embark on our journey back to the stage. Public health and the safety of our audiences are still our utmost priority and the performances will adhere to the current government guidelines.”

Tickets are now on sale for all three live concerts on 24 May, 14 June and 5 July here, with a percentage of profits from the event series being donated to Acting for Others. To book a ticket to view online, please click here.
