Live in the Delfont Room, a series of late night cabarets at the Prince of Wales Theatre's intimate venue, will recommence this summer with West End stars Danielle Hope, Daniel Boys and Joanna Riding all performing.

Playing on one evening a month, the season will feature a headline act with a selection of special guests.

It kicks off with Danielle Hope on 26 June. Hope most recently played Eponine in Les Miserables, and will star in The Last Five Years in the upcoming Greenwich Theatre production. She won Andrew Lloyd Webber's search for a Dorothy Over the Rainbow and subsequently played her in The Wizard of Oz at the London Palladium.

The second cabaret, on 31 July, will feature Olivier Award-winner Joanna Riding, who is about to open in the Chichester Festival Theatre transfer of The Pajama Game at the Shaftesbury Theatre. Her previous West End credits include Stephen Ward, The Umbrellas of Cherbourg, The Witches of Eastwick and Billy Elliot.

Daniel Boys will then play his cabaret show on 28 August. Boys, whose credits include Spamalot (West End), High Society (UK tour) and Avenue Q (West End), took to the stage at this afternoon's press launch to sing "They Don't Make Glass Slippers" from Stiles and Drewe's Soho Cinders.

Details for the final show in September will be announced shortly. Tickets go on sale today.
