Clonter’s Zoom Concerts
‘It was fantastic. It was a Christmas present from my sister to me and it was an excellent present. Both singers were lovely. They sang beautifully, presented the music well and were elegantly dressed. It made it a wonderful concert. We would love to have a concert on a regular basis…’
Mary
Due to the lovely feedback we received following our Christmas Zoom Concerts, we thought we would continue to offer this form of entertainment off season, with a choice of either opera, operetta, or musical theatre, or a combination of all three.
We have a group of singers all ready and waiting to present to you a one-to-one 30-minute Zoom concert.
If you are able to access this technology, or do so on a loved one’s behalf, please read on – Choose six songs from one individual singer’s jukebox, for a bespoke concert, at a time of your choosing and their availability.
Solo £60
Duo £90
Tea With… Songs from the Shows
Thursday 12th March, 4pm
‘What a lovely thing to watch on a grey afternoon… I’ve just had a lovely time, drinking my lunch time glass of sherry – a toast to your 2 gorgeous singers, followed by a delicious tea all for me!! It really was so good for the morale. I’m getting a bit fed up with being locked down… I loved all the different settings the singers had – wonderfully produced.’
Alison
Last March the storm was brewing, and it was the last time we were able to welcome you into the theatre for afternoon tea, but with one of the singers who took part in that rather historic event we went on quite a journey.
He teamed up with another singer and together they created, complete with costumes and props, a rather magical online show, turning a negative into a positive. This show was watched by 797 people, with their rendition of We’ll Meet Again being watched individually 675 times!
If you fancy a treat, this comes highly recommended.
Tea will also be available to pre-order – to enquire email boxoffice@clonter.org
E- Tickets £5, £10, £20, FREE for Friends and Patrons
