PHANTOM Vs. LES MISERABLES Charity Soccer Match Set For 8/11

Members from the current West End casts of long-running hits THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA and LES MISERABLES will convene to join former footballers and some A-list stars at Hayes Lane in Bromley for a special charity soccer game to benefit the Great Ormond Street Hospital later this month in the UK, titled LES MIS V. PHANTOM: THE REPRISE

In addition to multiple cast members from each mega-musical company, celebrities such as Gareth Gates, James Atherton, Ralf Little, Danny Jones and more will participate in the game, as will former professional athletes - and soccer stars in their own right - Francis Benali, Bobby Taylor and Paul Jones.

Of note, contributions to the charity have been made in the name of the LES MISERABLES company already by famous former stars of the show such as Michael Ball, Frances Ruffelle, Colm Wilkinson, Rebecca Caine, John Owen-Jones, Matt Lucas and more according to a recent blog post by event organizer Chris Key.

The charity football match kicks off on August 11 at 1 PM with a special performance, continuing with the big game itself at 3 PM - a rematch of the rivaling teams after a previous match-up and successful fund-raising event in the past.
