The Concert For Peace was organised by Janie Dee and took place at The Theatre Royal, Drury Lane, London on March 23, 2003 at 7:30pm. They had one rehearsal on that day from 11am - 7pm, which unfortunately David was unable to attend. The gala was directed by Ian Talbot and the whole thing was arranged in 4 weeks time!! Each artist or group performed a reading or song that had particular meaning to them, or to the evening's cause. Ticket prices were £10, £15, £20, £25 or £50. All of the money raised went to charities which help victims of war, including the Red Cross, Amnesty International, Oxfam and CARE

David Tennant performed a piece called "Nevertheless" with Juliet Aubrey, Jemma Redgrave and Alan Cox.

 Arabella Weir, Lindsay Duncan and John Barrowman also took part as well as a long list of stars. You can click here for a copy of the programme.
