Brighton Gay Men’s Chorus return to the Theatre Royal, Brighton once again this year, with their winter show Celebrate! to mark the culmination of their 10th anniversary year celebrations.

The Chorus invite their audience to join them as they reflect, reminisce and rejoice in their ten years together.

In the edited highlights of their sparkly decade of singing out, they will cover their ‘best bits’, introduce some surprises and give a glimpse of what is next to come.

The invitation is an opportunity for the choir to celebrate together and thank their audiences, supporters and members of the community that have made the last 10 years very special.

The show will also be raising funds for local LGBTQ charity MindOut, which provides support to people with mental health issues.

Chairman Paul Charlton, says: “In many ways its hard to believe that it is 10 years since Brighton Gay Men’s Chorus was first conceived – when a group of friends decided to get together in someone’s living room to sing and have fun.

“We’ve come along way since that time, with highlights including appearing on BBC’s Last Choir Standing in 2008, becoming a registered charity in 2010, performing our first full house show at Brighton Dome Concert Hall in 2011 alongside our patron June Brown, winning the Manchester Amateur Choral Competition in 2013, and co-hosting the national Hand In Hand LGBTQ Choir Festival this summer.

“We hope and look forward to continue singing together, supporting each other, and entertaining our fans and supporters long into the future!”

Marc Yarrow is the musical director and West End director, Quintin Young is joining the creative team as artist director for the evening.
