LES MIS v PHANTOM is back for one final swan song! The charity football match has so far raised over £60,000 for good causes. Four years ago, Melanie Oakley-Dow, the wig mistress at Les Mis was diagnosed with cancer. To support her and raise money for her chosen charity, I came up with the idea of a football match between the 2 titans of the West End! Sadly, Melanie passed away in 2014, so the day is now in her memory. It promises to be a fun filled, family day of music, entertainment and events, culminating in a football match between the two shows, featuring celebrity players and ex professional footballers. To build on the success of previous years, this year will kick off with a concert featuring West End stars and pop performers. The chosen charity for this year is The Make A Difference Trust. For the past 25 years, The Trust has been raising funds through the theatre community for HIV and AIDS projects that raise awareness and provide care, support and education in the UK and Sub-Saharan Africa. A substantial donation will also be made to Macmillan Cancer Support, Melanie Oakley-Dows chosen charity. Please help us raise as much money as possible by donating here if you can't make it on the day, or to sponsor your favourite players!
