Cygnet proms: A night at the musicals

synopsis

Thursday  8th June – Saturday 10 June  2023, St Barnabas Church

June 2023 saw our first ever Cygnet Proms! A live orchestra, a full choir, and a chance to dress up like you’re off to the Royal Albert Hall! The vision behind this project was to celebrate and showcase the talented musicians of the band that are usually hidden behind scenery. They were put front and centre, joined by a massed chorus of singers performing a range of musical theatre numbers across the ages.
