CURRENT AND RECENT PROJECTS

Do you think if we really believe it, we can change the world?
 

A lot of people did in 1968.

Cynthia, a Yorkshire factory worker and wannabe  fashion designer, is desperate to be a part of the changes happening in swinging London. Wide eyed and innocent, Cynthia soon finds herself under the wing of the intriguing and glamourous Jayne and her family of collected outcasts.

Using 1960’s inspired music, and set around the events of the Grosvenor Square riots, 68 tackles the clash of cultures taking place in late 1960’s Britain from the changing attitudes towards gay rights, and the Vietnam war, to police brutality and the lasting effects of sexual abuse.

The ripple effects of the riot threaten the fabric of peace and love for all of them, but can they find a way to come together and 'sew the world back together with love?’

Show Ready’s beloved Performing Through Song master classes are making a triumphant return for 2024! This year, we’re diving into the captivating world of lesser-known and underappreciated musicals. These hidden gems might not have graced the bright lights of Broadway or the West End, but they hold a special place in our hearts.

Performances include songs from:
“The Wild Party”: A sultry and intense tale set against the backdrop of a decadent 1920s party. About passion, and betrayal.
“Almost Famous”: A rock ‘n’ roll odyssey that follows an aspiring music journalist as he navigates the wild world of touring bands. Get ready for electrifying performances!
“Ushers”: An offbeat comedy that takes place in a London theater’s cloakroom. The quirky characters and catchy tunes will leave you smiling.
“Light in the Piazza”: A heartwarming love story set in Italy, where a chance encounter sparks a romance that transcends language barriers.

And that’s just the beginning! With over 20 performances by our talented soloists and ensemble, you’ll discover music that’s both fresh and timeless. Whether it’s a hidden gem you’ve never heard before or a rare rendition of a beloved song, this is your chance to experience something truly special.
