👩🏻‍🎤Choir is one of Act II Theatre Company’s longest standing groups. Children of all ages have been singing with Act II Choir for over 20 years! The choir sings in both unison and harmony and encourages solo and group singing.

🎼Each year, the Act II choir stages one large-scale concert at the South Holland centre, which is always a sellout, but also, they enjoy performing intimate soirees in other venues, and collaborating with other local groups, like SADOS.

⏰In addition, they perform at village fetes, retirement homes, churches and more! Act II Choir looks forward to delivering their acoustic set at 3.50pm at the Ayscoughfest Chillout Zone in the Wilderness Garden on Saturday 15th August.
