The Impossible Dream – Celebrating 10 Years of Music
Following the huge success of the first season of Sunday Favourites at The Other Palace, Lambert Jackson are thrilled to return with another star-filled line-up of intimate West End concerts! Sunday Favourites is designed to bring musical theatre lovers closer to their favourite stars of the West End. With just over 300 seats, the main theatre of The Other Palace is a perfect, beautifully intimate concert space where every seat feels close to the stage and everyone has the perfect view to see West End superstars perform an acoustic show of their favourite songs. Meet and greet options are available.
Lambert Jackson are honoured that Joe McElderry has chosen to return to Sunday Favourites at The Other Palace for the London date of his UK tour celebrating an incredible ten years in the music industry. Joe won the sixth series of the ITV talent show The X Factor in 2009 and his debut single ‘The Climb’ reached number one on the UK Singles Chart. He was also crowned the winner of the second series of ‘Popstar to Operastar’ in 2011 and the first series of ‘The Jump’ in 2014. In 2015, Joe played the role of Joseph in ‘Joseph and the Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat” in the touring production. Having released five top 20 albums (three of them top 10), Joe is without a doubt one of the most decorated X Factor winners ever and a force to be reckoned with, backed up by an incredible ten years in music and an incredible fanbase.

The Other Palace, formerly known as the St. James Theatre is a London West End theatre, and the first newly built theatre complex in central London for 30 years. It features a 312 seat theatre, a 100 seat studio theatre, a brasserie and lobby bar offering delicious food, fine wines and cocktails. Its location in SW1 alongside Buckingham Palace offers visitors the chance to step away from the crowded pavements of the West End and take sanctuary in the peaceful neighbourhood of the modern St James Theatre.
The Other Palace also incorporates a full broadcast TV facility enabling shows to be broadcast on BSkyB and to a worldwide audiences via online television.
The building was designed by Foster Wilson Architects and features a sculptured staircase designed by international award winning artist designer, Mark Humphrey. Crafted in Pietra Santa, by Porcelli Marmi, where Michelangelo carved David, the work of art staircase celebrates the best of British design alongside Italian craftsmanship.
The Other Palace's Creative Director Robert Mackintosh had been looking for the opportunity to create a smaller, off-Broadway type theatre for smaller shows or show just starting out. He'd felt that London was lacking in this type of venue for some time and so set out to make his dream a reality. Eventually, just the opportunity he had been looking for sprung up: a smaller theatre site on 12 Palace Street. He jumped on it and started developing his vision of the venue's future. The venue ended up being even more than he could have hoped for, not only did it have a theatre but also a studio and space besides for the lobby, bar, brasserie, and all the amenities The Other Palace offers today.
In September 2012 the theatre opened its doors for the first time with a performance of Sandi Toksvig’s Bully Boy, starring Anthony Andrews and Joshua Miles and shortly afterwards the The Other Palace studio space began showcasing excellent comedy, jazz and cabaret.
