TESTIMONIALS
Everyone looks forward to their choir rehearsals as great fun, great songs and such camaraderie and friendship. You will get a huge welcome from everyone, because we all simply love it and want you to enjoy it too.
I can’t recall the reason I joined The People’s Show Choir but I’m so glad I did as it’s such good fun. You get to meet a bunch of lovely people and gosh what a great sound we all make together, amazing! I’d definitely recommend it, a real feel good factor! Give it a go!
The enthusiasm and friendliness of everyone makes it the best experience ever and I can’t wait for the rehearsals each week. The songs are so uplifting and there’s no necessity to read music or even have a fantastic voice
Love being part of The People’s Show Choir – such a great bunch of people. The choir leader makes it easy for people who can’t read music or haven’t any previous choir experience (like me!) to fully join in. I look forward to going every week, have met some fab people and had lots of laughs. Singing is good for the soul. Come and see for yourself!
