Groove Chorus (NEW!)
Thursday 7 - 8.30pm
Start on 9th Jan 2025
Not your average choir! The Groove Chorus is your happy place. A chance to sing with incredible musicians, challenge yourself, and make great friends along the way. You will groove to iconic dance music inspired by queer culture from the 1970s to the present day. Each arrangement is seasoned with an eight-piece professional band to add extra spice!
Groove Chorus provides an opportunity to get away from the stresses of work or studies and feel like the main character! There's no audition process to join in – this is aimed at people who studied singing at school, college or university but let adulthood get in the way of pursuing it further. Some people read music fluently, some people not at all.
If you are a local resident in Fitzrovia and in receipt of means-tested benefits, you are eligible for a special 50% discount, which works out to £6 per session.
