THE RAILWAY CHILDREN Charity Gala

London, GB

COULD YOU HELP US TO HELP CHILDREN LIVING ON THE STREETS?  Please read on.

WOULD YOU LIKE TO APPEAR ON THE WEST END STAGE?  Please check out our rewards.

Everyone's Theatre Company is doing a performance of THE RAILWAY CHILDREN musical - by Julian Woolford and Richard John, based on the much-loved novel by E. Nesbit - on Sunday 14th December at the Duke of York Theatre in London's West End.  This production is in support of the children's charity, Railway Children, and we are aiming to raise as much as we possibly can towards the cost of putting this on, to enable us to give every other penny to this wonderful cause.  To find out more about this amazing, but sadly necessary, charity who help children all over the world, particularly in the United Kingdom and India, please click on the link below:-

Everyone's Theatre Company is an amateur community non-profit-making musical theatre group.  Formerly Opera di Nepotist, it was formed in 2009 to perform SWEENEY TODD with family and friends.  However, we are still going!  If you would like to know more about us, please check out our website: www.everyonestheatrecompany.com .  We are always happy to welcome new members, so perhaps you might like to join us?  There is no requirement to be able to read music or have had any previous performing experience. 

We are all extremely excited about this project: to have the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity of performing on a West End stage; but even more that, in the doing so, we will be able to raise money for such a worthwhile cause.  We are also extremely honoured that the Duke of York, His Royal Highness Prince Andrew, has offered to write a foreward for our programme.  Particularly appropriate as the Theatre was named after his Great-Grandfather, King George V. 

ATG will be selling tickets for the performance and a link will be added when they go on sale.

The sum we hope to raise from this campaign is to go towards the cost of hiring the theatre which will be in the region of £8-9,000 (depending on staffing levels).  On top of that, there will of course be many other expenses: licensing, insurance, costumes, props, musicians, etc..  If we are successful in our initial campaign, we will continue in the hope that more and more of the ticket sales money can go to the Railway Children.  To that end, we hope you like the rewards we are offering as a thank you for your kindness.  (Please note, none of the rewards include travel .)  If you would like to know a little more, click on the video link below.

We would be so grateful for your support.  With your help, we can make this an extraordinary occasion, on many levels.

Thank you.
