Happy #RedNoseDay! Have you seen the #StageFaves featured in Comic Relief's brilliant new video? Lin-Manuel Miranda and Rebel Wilson audition to become Stephen Hawking's new voice, while Andrew Lloyd Webber takes to the keyboards to compose a new musical in honour of the scientist, Everybody's Hawking...
Lin-Manuel and Rebel face some very stiff - and eclectic - competition for the new voice gig by the way, including from the likes of Eddie Redmayne (who wants big bucks for a sequel to The Theory of Everything), Liam Neeson, Simon Cowell, Anna Kendrick, Bill Gates and many more! But who gets hired?
When the most famous scientist in the universe is looking for a new voice, you gotta give it a go! #rednoseday pic.twitter.com/KT6uaRJ9P4

Speaking of Red Nose Day, hats off to Kinky Boots for all it's doing to raise funds - and fun - for Comic Relief. We spent a stupid amount of time trying to pin the red nose on the face of Charlie (aka #StageFave David Hunter) on Facebook.
And from 6.15pm tonight, you can join the cast in their pre-show warm-up via Facebook Live (also via the show's #StageFaves page, of course!) Those attending tonight's show are also encouraged to give generously for the red bucket collections.
The show is also extending the festivities beyond today. You have until Monday morning to bid on some amazing lots in the Kinky Boots auction for Comic Relief, including posters signed by all the cast and a nearly Matt Henry-sized front of house board. That's some souvenir!
What else have the cast been doing? Here they all are taking the #StepUpGetDown challenge!
And who wanted want to gobble up these Comic Relief cupcakes made by cast member Melissa Jacques and her daughter?
