Based in Kentish Town, London, Giant Olive has gained a reputation for its diverse programming of classic and modern work across the spectrum of the performing arts.
On becoming a patron, Hugh said: "I'm honoured to be a Patron of Giant Olive Theatre Company, which has already firmly pinned itself to the London theatre map as a vibrant, small-scale but big hearted and ambitious company. It helps that I love olives."
Giving Back: Any purchases made on Amazon via links from this site benefit Merlin, the international medical relief charity of which Hugh is a patron.
Here's how it works: click on either of the Amazon buttons on the Homepage or on an Amazon-related item (eg a DVD of Downton Abbey) and any completed purchase made on amazon.co.uk or amazon.com during that visit will generate a commission for this website, which is then passed on to the charity as an annual donation. You don't even have to buy the item which first took you to the Amazon site. In 2012, £840 was donated to Merlin this way, adding to the £101.25 raised in the 6 months to December 2011. So, any time you buy anything from Amazon, please consider doing so via this site - you'll be helping a great cause. Thank you.
