A West End Gala at the Adelphi Theatre will celebrate over 75 years of the NHS – a major milestone reached by the health service in 2023. With All Our Hearts will commemorate this significant anniversary with an all-star cast this April. With All Our Hearts is presented by Adam Blanshay Productions in partnership with NHS Charities Together and is kindly sponsored by Starbucks. This exciting Gala is directed by stage and TV legend Arlene Phillips with Lily Dyble. 100% of the proceeds will be donated directly to NHS Charities Together the national charity caring for the NHS.
Strictly fantastic host Oti Mabuse (Strictly Come Dancing BBC; Dancing on Ice ITV) and Dr Ranj (BBC Morning Live Strictly Come Dancing BBC) will introduce stars of the West End including award-winning stage legend Kerry Ellis (Anything Goes UK Tour; Wicked Apollo Victoria Theatre) along with Tom Francis (Sunset Boulevard Savoy Theatre; & Juliet Shaftesbury Theatre) and Jodie Steele (Rehab Neon 194; Heathers Theatre Royal Haymarket). Actress Joni Ayton-Kent (The Prince Southwark Playhouse; A Christmas Carol: A Ghost Story BBC); bionic arm-user and musical star Gracie McGonigal (The Little Big Things @sohoplace; The Crucible National Theatre); Ahmed Hamad (Standing At The Sky’s Edge National Theatre; The Colour Purple Birmingham Hippodrome); Preeya Kalidas (Eastenders BBC; Everybody’s Talking About Jamie Lyceum Theatre) and Trevor Dion Nicholas (Disney’s Aladdin Dominion Theatre; Bonnie & Clyde Theatre Royal Drury Lane) will also take to the stage to celebrate the NHS.
With All Our Hearts is directed and staged by Dame Arlene Phillips alongside her associate Lily Dyble (Guys & Dolls The Bridge Theatre). Rob Madge (My Son’s a Queer) will be writing the show as well as performing themselves. The crème de la crème West End cast will be joined by the NHS Choir from Lewisham and Greenwich NHS Trust whose hits include Christmas Number 1 A Bridge Over You; With a Little Help from My Friends; and Holy with Justin Bieber which was in the Spotify and iTunes Top 5. In November 2023 the NHS Choir sang at a reception for international nurses and midwives at Buckingham Palace hosted by King Charles on his 75th birthday.
