An online charity concert. Put on your sparkles, your reindeer Christmas jumper, switch on the Christmas tree lights and settle down for an evening of festive fun and music. A West End Christmas 2020 - A Magical Christmas was filmed at St Paul's Covent Garden. With the prospect of a very different family Christmas this year, the Make A Difference Trust have decided that our festive show must go on! For the last 17 years, A West End Christmas has been the highlight of the Christmas calendar for the theatre community and its loyal audiences. The one-night-only sold out show has heralded the start of Christmas in a way only the West End can. And this year the show will indeed go on, with stars and companies of the West End joining together once more for a very special recorded show. St Paul's Church in London's Covent Garden will again be transformed into a world of magic and joy, the Christmas of all our dreams. Normally, a West End Christmas would raise funds for those living with or affected by HIV and AIDS. This year, the charity has revived and repurposed their hardship fund into the Covid-19 Emergency Fund, to help the theatre community directly, by providing Emergency Hardship Grants for those on stage and off who are struggling financially due to theatre closures and the monies raised will go to the Emergency fund as well as to fund HIV work.
