We have a side room you can practice and warm up in too. \nAll mediums are welcome\, amateur or professional\, new or old material\, originals or covers. Soloists or groups. It’s a really great place to try things out\, build confidence\, or just have some fun! \nAudience members required too\, so don’t be put off if you’re not performing! Everyone is welcome. \nThere’s a bar alongside our usual offer of cakes\, nibbles\, and hot and cold drinks . \nThis is a family friendly event\, but all under 18s should be accompanied by an adult due to licensing restrictions. \nIt’s free to attend\, but we appreciate donations on the door to help us cover the cost of putting on the event. Suggested donation £5\, but anything you can give would be amazing. Donations can be made by cash (bucket on way in) or by card (at the bar).
