West End Live 2008 – running order
West End LIVE 2008 is a free family event taking place outdoors in Leicester Square, London on Saturday 21st and Sunday 22nd June. The entertainment kicks off at 11am on Saturday morning and again at 12noon on the Sunday with plenty of top acts packed in to the line up on the huge main stage. Most of the West End’s top shows will be presenting full cast excerpts from the shows with several songs and dances from each during the day.
Here is the running order, which is likely to stick pretty closely to the following schedule. If you are able to make it, have a great day out and do please share any photos and short videos taken in the London Theatre Flickr group or similar, posting links in the comments below. Cheers.
