Vocal Workshop for Beginners @ Lauderdale House
Jan 25 @ 10:30 am – 2:30 pm

Novice singer that would like to improve? Come to Singing in London Workshop for Beginners and learn to sing from scratch in four hours!

The workshop will teach you singing skills step by step from basic level and will show you how to use your vocal range in both singing for fun and presentation for public speaking.

We’ll be working on singing and breathing techniques and will show you how to develop your singing skills.

Are you a soprano, an alto, a baritone or bass – you’ll find out at the workshop!

To round it off together we’ll prepare you for a short group performance at the end of the workshop.

We’ve chosen two beautiful songs to practice at the workshop: Magic Moments By Perry Como & Over the Rainbow from the Wizard of Oz. The workshop schedule & the song sheets with web links to practice will be emailed to you upon booking.

At the end of the workshop you will receive a certificate of achievement for completing the beginner level. You can follow it up with the 2nd Level workshop for Intermediates in February.

We limit places to our workshops so enrol now to secure your place before it’s booked up book online.

Mark Thomas: Red Shed (work in progress) @ Jacksons Lane
Jun 28 @ 8:00 pm – 9:30 pm
Mark Thomas: Red Shed (work in progress) @ Jacksons Lane

Red Shed is the third part in a trilogy that started with the multi award winning shows Bravo Figaro and Cuckooed.

Mark returns to the place where he first started to perform in public, a red wooden shed in Wakefield, the Labour Club, to celebrate the club’s 50th birthday.

Interviewing old friends and comrades Mark pieces together the club’s history and works with the club to campaign with some of the poorest workers in the country for their rights.

It is the story of the battle for hope and the survival of a community in a small wooden shed.

It is part theatre, part stand up, part journalism, part activism and returns to Mark’s obsessions of community and struggle.

The show will involve the audience (in a nice way) to help recreate the shed and its inhabitants.

nocturne – the romantic life of frederic chopin

HIGHGATEHASHEART is delighted to announce a fundraising concert, “Chopard & Champagne” on Sunday 19th November in support of vital refugee causes.

“Nocturne – The Romantic Life of Frederic Chopin is an evening of music and drama conceived by the internationally renowned concert pianist Lucy Parhamwith narrations by the celebrated actors Henry Goodman and Juliet Stevenson(a co-founder of Highgate Has Heart and local resident). The programme of words and music has been scripted and adapted from letters and diaries by Parham, chronicling the romantic life of one the greatest and most popular composers for solo piano – Frédéric Chopin. The narrative follows his turbulent relationship with the controversial literary figure George Sand, their time together in Majorca, his fragile health and his ultimate demise in poverty in Paris at the age of 39. The readings, with Frederic Chopin narrated by Goodman and George Sand by Stevenson, are interspersed with some of his most loved and poignant compositions played by Parham in the evocative setting of Lauderdale House.

Tickets includes drinks reception and concert performance.

Drinks reception from 7pm with concert starting at 8pm. The evening will end at 10pm with a short interval.

BBC Music Magazine 5 stars *****

Proceeds from the evening will be donated on behalf of HighgateHasHeart to the 4 refugees charities we support: Help Refugees, Safe Passage, Islington Centre and Young Roots.
