We are very excited to announce that the next blockbuster concert in Newcastle is to be

“BACK TO THE MUSICALS”

Following the sell-out concert of Sing the Classics and Classical Rock, and as we celebrate our 10th year we will be returning to The Sage with a concert of well-known favourites from the Musicals.

With some numbers from our original Sing the Musicals concert , including  Les Miserables and Anthem, this will also feature songs from all that is best in modern musical theatre, including the new West End sensations Wicked, Hairspray and Spamalot, and many more, this will be much less challenging when it comes to learning words (promise), but no less satisfying musically.

Following the feedback from our singers, we are now changing the format of the rehearsal CD. Instead of having just the music on the CD, you now have the lyrics too!

Rising costs of keeping the Company in The Sage, music rights holders costs,  rehearsal venues and general running of the company plus producing the new upgraded CD has unfortunately meant that we have had to increase the rehearsal and performance fee. The new fee will be £135.00 including VAT (plus £10 Music Pack deposit fee if we are not already holding one). We are sure you will all appreciate the new rehearsal CD.

This will be a very popular concert, so please apply early as we expect this concert to fill up very quickly after the huge success of Classics and Classical Rock.

We look forward to seeing you all at the launch
