Earlier this year, Love Actually director Richard Curtis announced Christmas Actually, which won’t be a stage adaptation of Love Actually but a festive theatre show for the charity.

According to the BBC, Christmas Actually will be a variety performance full of live music, poetry and comedy this December.

The filmmaker said: “We hope it’ll be a real chocolate box – or perhaps advent calendar – of delights.”

Curtis has promised audiences that Christmas Actually, which will run for eight performances at the Royal Festival Hall from December 7-11, will be “noisy and emotional and full of surprises and jokes, with some proper celebrity sparkle.”

The director continued: “I remember I didn’t always love the Christmas shows I took my children to, but I always took them to one. So we thought it would be fun to make a show for Christmas that really is fun for all the family. And then the idea of doing it also to raise money for Comic Relief made the idea irresistible.”
