Producer Mark Robert Petty said, “This concert will be a celebration of Lewis’s life and will feature songs, readings and speeches dedicated to Lewis’s memory and legacy with The Lewis Sewell Memorial Trust.”
During his time in hospital, Lewis had the idea for his family to support young people to access auditions for theatre schools, having seen how difficult it is for young people to enter the performing arts industry without the financial and moral support that he enjoyed. He was instrumental in setting out the criteria for his awards and for the 3 tenets of Courage, Positivity and Resilience that form the basis of the Lewis Sewell Memorial Trust. Thanks to the generosity and support from both inside and outside the performing arts world, the Lewis Sewell Memorial Trust is now able to support several young people each year. A fitting legacy to a young man who has been described ‘as not only an excellent actor but a great artistic collaborator’.
