Re: breast cancer concert sunday oct 4th

Thanks Ann-marie for the heads up

Re: breast cancer concert sunday oct 4th

Thanks Ann-Marie, where did you find this?

Re: breast cancer concert sunday oct 4th

Here's an article in the Stage. Doesn't mention Lee, except as having taken part last year. http://www.thestage.co.uk/news/newsstory.php/24686/west-end-actors-to-star-in-variety-show-to

Re: breast cancer concert sunday oct 4th

When will we know if he is appearing then, I am confused!

Re: breast cancer concert sunday oct 4th

Just keep checking the concert website and 'The Stage' website for updates - they're adding performers to the line-up all the time!

Re: breast cancer concert sunday oct 4th

Surely his website should let us know as soon as it is confirmed. Isn't that why we signed up?

Re: breast cancer concert sunday oct 4th

That reads to me like he's NOT appearing.

Re: breast cancer concert sunday oct 4th

His website is for the music side of his career (i.e. his albums), so probably wouldn't list one-off concert appearances, especially if they're MT concerts.

Re: breast cancer concert sunday oct 4th

There is another Charity Concert on the same night 4th October at the Drury Lane Theatre in aid of CLIC Seargent a charity that works with children and families of those children that are undergoing treatment of Cancer. The concert is 'Broadway to West End by Special Arrangement'

Re: breast cancer concert sunday oct 4th

Johartuk, I know we keep being told that Lee's website only deals with his albums but why doesn't he have a website for everything else? It would keep his fans happy and stop all the speculation about future events.

Re: breast cancer concert sunday oct 4th

I honestly don't know the answer to that. But having a website wouldn't stop speculation - we'd still be waiting around for info! Lee can't say anything yet about his future plans. He'll make an announcement when he's able to. Until then, we just have to wait!

Re: breast cancer concert sunday oct 4th

I'll second that, johartuk. And let's not forget that this acting class that he's taking is for the enhancement of his career.
We could speculate till we're blue in the face but he'll be back when he's good and ready.
