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.

Mark Thomas: Red Shed (work in progress) @ Jacksons Lane

Tickets

Jun 28 @ 8:00 pm – 9:30 pm

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.

Ssshhh! Circus Cabaret curated by Lucy Loves Circus @ Jacksons Lane

Tickets

Jul 16 @ 8:00 pm – 9:30 pm

Curated by Lucy Loves Circus

Doffing our cap to the traditions of vaudeville and the origins of circus and cabaret, acclaimed circus blogger Lu Cyrcus curates this very special night, led by Cirque du Soleil’s lead clown Sean Kempton. New and old combine in this evening of contemporary varieté, featuring everything from pole dancing to aerial rope and trapeze, where burlesque meets juggling kettle bells, with a dash of musical saw thrown in for good measure.

A night to tease, whisper and gasp – Ssshhh!
