The one-hour performance of John Rutter’s glorious Requiem will be sung by a choir of professional West End singers past and present, conducted by Jae Alexander, and featuring soprano soloist,Rebecca Caine, with a reading by actor, Nickolas Grace.

 

The concert, which is subtitled ‘Taking Time to Reflect, Remember and Celebrate’, invites everyone to come together as one community – from those working in the HIV and AIDS sector and members of the theatre industry, to others who might wish to remember loved ones or simply support the cause and enjoy the performance.

 

This special event is being held to remember those people who the community has lost to AIDS, to reflect upon what has been achieved and what is still to be done in the fights against HIV and AIDS, and to celebrate over 25 years of fundraising and grant-making by the theatre industry for this cause.

 

Whilst the concert is free of charge, any donations made on the day will be used to continue the work of The Make a Difference Trust.

 

Originally founded as West End Cares in 1990 and later becoming Theatrecares, The Make A Difference Trust (www.madtrust.org.uk
) (aka MAD Trust & t/a TheatreMAD), is the theatre industry’s response to HIV and AIDS, raising funds for HIV and AIDS Projects that build awareness and provide care, support and education in the UK and Sub-Saharan Africa.
