Details for this year's West End Bares concert have been announced along with a selection of 'cheeky' promo images offering a glimpse of what to expect.

The show will feature cast members from West End productions including American Idiot, Gypsy, Memphis and Wicked, with choreography from the likes of Racky Plews (American Idiot), Jane McMurtrie (Gypsy) and Lee Proud (Grand Hotel).

Celebrity hosts are yet to be announced but have previously included Graham Norton, Sheridan Smith, John Barrowman and Paul O’Grady.

West End Bares is produced by The Make A Difference Trust, a UK based charity with a vision of a world free from HIV and AIDS. Building on the legacy of 25 years of fundraising by the Theatre industry, they continue to make the vision a reality having distributed over £1.6 million in grants to support individuals experiencing hardship across the UK as well as over £1million to support projects with their UK and international partners.

Now in its sixth year, this annual event – based on the original concept Broadway Bares by legendary Broadway and West End director and choreographer Jerry Mitchell – combines the naughtiness of burlesque along with the razzle dazzle of the West End featuring a variety of performers currently appearing in West End productions.

West End Bares takes place at the Café De Paris on Sunday 20 September 2015, at 9.30pm and Midnight. Tickets are available from www.madtrust.org.uk.
