JUDY - NO PLACE LIKE HOME
Role: Ensemble
Legends from stage and screen came together for an unmissable one-off event to celebrate the legacy of Judy Garland and raise funds for Centrepoint, the leading charity for homeless young people.
Stars aligned on 28 November 2022 at the iconic Lyric Theatre in London’s West End for ‘Judy – No Place Like Home’.
Celebrities, including Frances Ruffelle, Jessica Hynes, Lisa Maxwell and Bonnie Langford payed homage to Judy’s prolific career alongside inspirational young people from Centrepoint.
The organisation wanted to celebrate what would have been Judy Garland’s 100th birthday. Garland was an LGBTQ+ icon and someone who experienced homelessness, poverty and poor mental health.
More than most, Judy has shown us that we are all just humans trying to find a place to belong – happiness is ours if we can just make it Over The Rainbow!
Vital funds raised on the night were used by Centrepoint to expand their successful Independent Living Programme, which hopes to provide 300 affordable houses for young people and an apprenticeship or a job.
