HEAR THE PEOPLE SING - A NIGHT OF MUSICAL THEATRE
Following her hugely successful book launch here at The RVT, when Jill Nalder and her sensational singing group, the Westenders wowed the packed crowd, we are thrilled to confirm that the Westenders are coming back to The RVT for a special night of musical theatre to raise money for the Terrence Higgins Trust, plus they will be joined by special guest, drag superstar Lola Lasagne for what promises to be a very special night.
Jill was the inspiration for the character of Jill Baxter in the smash hit TV series It's a Sin and appeared in the series as Jill's mum, her book, Love From The Pink Palace tells the real stories that inspired Russell T Davies to write the hit show.
The WestEnders is the brainchild of Jill and Linda Jarvis, conceived as they sat in their dressing room at the top of London's famous Palace Theatre while appearing in Les Miserables. Jill's experience running successful star-studded cabaret nights as part of the charity West End Cares combined with Linda's experience of corporate entertainment were brought together, along with fellow Les Miz cast members Jon Osbaldeston and Frances Fry, and renowned West End Musical Director Jae Alexander. These were the 'famous five' who founded WestEnders...and the rest is history! WestEnders love to bring the West End to audiences around the world, drawing on the many shows they have appeared in both in London and on tour. thewestenders.com
