Community Choir: The Musical is a heartwarming and hilarious tale set in Brisbane. A quirky community choir finds itself thrust into the spotlight when it's accidentally invited to compete in Sydney's prestigious National Choral Competition. Internal conflicts and personal dilemmas temper their initial excitement. As they grapple with song choices, rivalries, and hidden secrets, their journey takes a fantastical turn with the arrival of the flamboyant ‘Spirit of the Song’. Only one unlikely choir member can see this enigmatic character with the magical ability to reveal people's deepest truths and fears. With a mix of humour, drama, and catchy original music, this toe-tapping experience explores themes of unity, love, and self-discovery. As the choir members confront their personal and collective challenges, they must unite to seize their moment in the spotlight and find harmony both on and off the stage. This production of Community Choir: The Musical is proudly performed by local community members. 95% of the cast are non-professional performers; some have never performed on stage.
