Highgate Calendar – Public events in Highgate, London

Whether you are a total beginner or an experienced singer you’ll enjoy singing fabulous songs from the West End and training your voice at the same time. Take a look at a short video of workshop run by Idit.

In the first session of the workshop we’ll teach you basic breathing and vocal techniques and show you some performing skills which you’ll be using later in the singing session.

You’ll be coached individually as well as working with the group. Kieran and Idit will prepare you for a short performance at the end of the workshop. Once you book your place on the workshop we’ll email you the song sheets with web links so you can practise in advance.

Great fun, not to be missed! Find out more and book via our Workshops page.

George Egg: Anarchist Cook @ Jacksons Lane

Tickets

Jul 20 @ 8:00 pm – 9:30 pm

If you like food, you’ll love this…

Internationally acclaimed comedian George Egg is also a rather fanatical self-taught cook with a somewhat anarchic approach to making meals. As obsessed with culinary matters as he is with comedic ones, and finding himself dissatisfied with the quality and cost of takeaways and room-service meals while touring the stand-up comedy clubs of the world, George embarks on a project to take matters into his own surprisingly capable hands.

A surreal and absurd mix of stand-up comedy and striking innovation – in the words of Jay Rayner – “You’ll never look at a Corby trouser press in the same way again”

“It’s an hilarious show, with surprisingly good food.” The Times

“It is refreshing to encounter a performer who really is unique.” The Telegraph

“Absolutely glorious.” The Scotsman

Fantastic Voyage: a Bowie Circus Cabaret @ Jacksons Lane

Tickets

Jul 22 @ 8:00 pm – 9:30 pm

David Bowie loved the circus, and we love David Bowie.

Jacksons Lane pays its respects with a once-in-a-lifetime night of spectacular sound and vision that we think will blow your minds. Performers from across the globe come together to celebrate Ziggy, the Thin White Duke, and maybe even Jareth the Goblin King as they choose their favourite Bowie look and song for a night of spaceman-inspired circus that’s out of this world.
