An almost pitch perfect comedy!

Can the choir find their harmony?

The Morgan Jackson community choir meet in the backroom of a local pub. They can't all sing the right notes at the right time, but all enjoy singing together.

With a concert coming up to raise money for young singer Freddie to go to music college and the surprise that The One Show is coming to film them for a segment the pressure is truly on. Can Paul put aside his jealously, can Esther and Joy work through their dispute, will Shelia be able to keep her hands to herself and can Freddie get over his nerves, or will the concert be a disaster before it even begins?

This hilarious new play celebrates the power of community and the arts in all their oddities.
