About
You requested music you could sing along to, and we intend to deliver, with our very own West End extravaganza, with a twist.
With a combined audience of 15 million a year, the West End is an institution of British Culture. Yet 9 out of 10 musicians playing on the West End are male. We’re going to buck that trend with a shockingly gender balanced (WHAT?!?) ensemble arranged by MD Yshani Perinpanayagam. It'll be a season finale party jam, encouraging singalongs and featuring games inspired by famous musicals.
Featuring &Juliet's Kirstie Skivington on vocals
