Since 1998 Roy has been preparing

' The West End Stage - Dance, Musicals & Plays ' photo exhibition.

Roy has set aside years of his life dedicated to preserving these moments in his photos.

It is his way of saying, ' thank you ', to the British Theatre,

which has given him so much pleasure.


All the exhibits will be auctioned off and the proceeds will go to

two UK based actor's charities / foundation The Theatrical Guild TTG -

A charity to help all in need in the theatre especially the unsung heroes

those who work back stage and front of house.

TheatreMad - a fund to relieve suffering and hardship for those living with

HIV, AIDS and other critical illnesses.
