Doors open at 1.45pm

The show lasts approximately 65 minutes
The workshop will be taught by ear and everyone is welcome. Noone will be asked to sing alone though there may be the opportunity for people to volunteer to sing a song in a small group if there is time. Some of the songs will be rounds and we won't do anything very complicated but plan to create a glorious sound and some heart warming harmonies together.
