Adam Blanshay Productions and The Theatre Cafe have announced further details about Episode 4 of The Theatre Channel - The Holiday Special.

The episode will feature a number of festive songs and will be released on 23 December. It features a star-studded line-up including Matt Croke and Tosh Wanogho-Maud singing a new arrangement of ‘Happy Holidays’ and ‘Let’s Start The New Year Right’ from Holiday Inn, Sophie-Louise Dann performing ‘We Need A Little Christmas’ from Mame, Cassidy Janson singing ‘White Christmas’ from the musical of the same name, Rachel John singing ‘A Brand New Day’ from The Wiz, Zizi Strallen performing ‘Turkey Lurkey Time’ from Promises Promises, Manon Taris singing ‘Ave Maria Paien’ from Notre Dame de Paris and The Cafe Four (Alyn Hawke, Emily Langham, Sadie-Jean Shirley and Alex Woodward), along with 2020 Arts Ed graduates, will sing ‘Seasons of Love’ from Rent.

Producer Adam Blanshay said: “As we reach the culmination of arguably the most challenging year of the past several decades, our goal with Episode four is to consider and contemplate upon the hardships we have faced, recognise those whom we have lost, but also instil a joyous celebration of the Holiday season, and the promise of the year ahead with brighter times to come. The Holiday episode will exist as a timeless anthem of reflection and hope that will brighten the spirit, no matter the season or time of year. Furthermore, we are so thrilled to be working with the Graduating students of ArtsEd whose burgeoning careers were abruptly halted by the pandemic, hopefully giving them a platform to blossom as the theatre community begins to reopen the doors to live performances once again.”

The Theatre Channel episodes are directed and choreographed by Bill Deamer, with musical supervision by Michael England, set and costume design by Gregor Donnelly, lighting design by Jack Weir, sound design by Keegan Curran, videography by Ben Hewis and hair and makeup by Diana Hudson.
