Who We Are
For more than 15 years, Muse & Music have been creating magical Christmas shows in London’s West End and a selection of Fringe Theatres with a troupe of highly experienced actors, singers and performers.
The concept of a lunchtime Christmas event in the West End was developed by Gillian Royale and Charmian May in 1995.
Every year Jermyn Street Theatre, just off Piccadilly Circus, has played host to our presentations which are regarded by many as a wonderful way to start the festive season.
Local businesses, corporate clients, Christmas shoppers and the theatrical community make up our regular audiences for an action-packed hour in which they can leave their worries at the door and relax for an enriching review of traditional and contemporary Christmas carols, songs from the shows and comedy sketches.
Kim Allen is now the producer and among directors and choreographers engaged to further develop and enhance the presentation of the shows have been Andrew Lynford, Helen Jeckells, David Massey, Joel Montague and latterly Kris Manuel. Musical directors have included Mike Cryne, Huw Evans, Candida Caldicot, Bob Broad and Paul Moon. This year we welcome Robert Dowton.

“We guarantee a show-stopping hour of festive song and dance”
says Kim.
Our cast members are young drama and music school graduates; some have performed in West End shows such as Chicago, Joseph, Phantom and Les Misérables.
It’s a team effort and no production would be successful without the dedicated people who work tirelessly in the background. Kate Winder and Barry Rocard have been a treasured part of the team for many years. Meta Rocard produces our poster designs, programmes and photographs and Emma Burton web design. Christine Beal provides marketing and sponsorship.
Muse and Music thank our fantastic sponsors over the years for their support.
This year especially the show would not be possible without the support of Bell Pottinger Public Affairs and Green's Restaurant.
