Get The Party Started
A Phoenix Players Cabaret for Cancer Care Map UK
We’re proud to announce that we’ll be performing a cabaret on Saturday 30th November at 7:00pm at St Anne’s Church Hall Bermondsey SE1 5QH.
This will be our final show of 2024, directed by the inimitable Frazer Scott.
Frazer is a professional opera singer and Phoenix friend, and he's celebrating ten years cancer-free this year. He wants to mark this milestone, but also move on from it, so the theme of this cabaret is a celebration of life. There'll be group numbers to learn on this theme, but also opportunity for solos and small groups, so get your thinking caps on for songs you'd like to perform.
Proceeds from the show will be split between Phoenix and Cancer Care Map UK, a charity that Frazer has worked closely with over the past ten years, which helps people find cancer support services in their local areas.
Get involved
As we know it's a busy time of the year, we're going to run this as a 24-hour cabaret - so a rehearsal on Friday 29th evening, plus daytime on Saturday 30th, before performing that evening.
But never fear, there will be lots of extra support available for those who want a little more time to practice, including full rehearsal material released in advance, opportunities for 1:1 practice with Frazer, and both informal and formal chances to discuss and learn material. The dates for these have already been finalised - see below.
Sign-ups to perform in the show are now open!! Sign up here:
