London Theatre Workshop, Leadenhall Market
Inventive director Hannah Chissick leads this unique workshop, accompanied by musical director & arranger, Noam Galperin. Come along yourself or grab a partner, and explore both solo & duet musical theatre repertoire.
Hannah will be directing the highly anticipated UK Premiere of the Broadway classic, Side Show, at Southwark Playhouse. She also directed the acclaimed recent London production of Marry Me A Little.
Tickets must be booked in advance, and we strongly suggest booking as soon as possible to avoid disappointment. Strictly limited Participant tickets are avaliable, as well as many discounted Observer tickets.
ABOUT THE WORKSHOP
Hannah will work with 5 soloists & 5 duet couples, on a song which has previously prepared for the workshop. Each person/couple will recieve a generous amount of time to work on their performance. The workshop itself aims to have a relaxing and supportive atmosphere, allowing participants to feel safe to experiment and try out new things with Hannah.
The workshop will last for 4 hours, with a short break midway through.
Observers will be encouraged to be actively involved, invited to ask questions and support those who are singing in the workshop.
