FAQs:
Q1. Is it really your 18th Birthday?
A. No! (but thanks for asking!) It’s the 18th birthday charity concert I’ve organised - my friends from the worlds of music and theatre donate their time and talent and we party for a good cause.
Q2. Can anyone attend?
A. Yes, absolutely! You just need to buy a ticket!
Q3. I see there’s a dress code – “Extreme Glamour – red & gold”. I’m not sure I can do this…?
A. It’s encouraged, not mandatory - think sequins, feathers, tiaras - a fun reason to dress up. If you’re worried about travelling in Diva style, we will have some props for you.
Q4. Shall I bring birthday gifts, cards, flowers, bottles?
A. No! Absolutely forbidden! But bring cash as there is a raffle with fabulous prizes – all for Parkinson’s UK.
Q5. Why Parkinson’s UK charity?
A. Because this terrible disease has affected people very close to me and the research and support funded by the charity is valuable and proven.
Q6. Why in memory of Susan Porrett?
A. Our dear friend and colleague, actress Susan Porrett, died in late April. Susan loved a party and contributed to so many of the 7 Star Arts' programmes, so we will use this wonderful fun evening as an opportunity to remember and honour her.
