The rise and rise of Cramlington Community Choir

 

In 2022, the then newly-formed Cramlington Community Choir supported the Wor Bella project, performing pre-show in tour venues around the region. 

 

Two years on, Wisecrack Productions is delighted to be working with the excellent ensemble again when The Cramlington Train Wreckers play takes to the stage this November (2024).

 

Around 70 members of the thriving choir will sing a selection of songs based on themes of justice, protest, rights and power before the 7 pm performance in Cramlington Learning Village on Thursday, November 7, and ahead of the 7.30 pm show in Playhouse Whitley Bay on Wednesday, November 13.

 

Led by Jill Brown, the choir prides itself in entertaining the local community. Members enjoy performing in community spaces such as the shopping centre, local care homes and parks. Their recent concerts in Doxford Place Methodist Church were attended by over 300 audience members. 

 

Concerts and performances are free of charge so that they are as accessible to as many people as possible.

 

Jill said: “We are delighted to be invited to be part of the Cramlington Train Wreckers project and play our part as people come together to remember this historic event which took place in our town. Our rehearsals will begin in June.”
