Always wanted to be in a musical? - Now is your chance.

AFTER THEIR recent success with the musicals Nunsense, 9 to 5, and Stepping Out, Cowal Choral Club is now forming the cast for their next musical (to be held at the Queen’s Hall, on May 28 until May 30), and are on the lookout for new members who are ready to commit to being part of it

The new season begins with a relaxed evening at St John’s Church Hall, Dunoon on Thursday, January 22 at 7pm. Far from a stuffy registration night, it’s an informal opportunity to chat to members, meet musical director Andrew Nicol, enjoy a cup of tea or coffee and biscuits, and even try out a musical piece or two.

“The Welcome Evening is a chance to meet everyone without any pressure,” said one club member. “You don’t have to audition to join the club, you don’t have to be

able to read music, you don’t even need to be confident or have any previous experience. If you enjoy singing and having fun, just come along!”

Cowal Choral Club welcomes members of all ages, with free membership for school pupils aged 14 and over. However, they would love to see more younger people join them – especially men. So if you’re a guy who can belt out Oasis at karaoke or sing in a local band, you’ll fit right in!

“If you want a laugh and good company, I can highly recommend it.” a member explained, while another added, “Lovely friendly group of people. Join us. I am sure you will get hooked.”

So if you’ve seen any of their previous musicals and thought you fancy a try then the club would love to hear from you so they can give you more information.

Cowal Choral Club’s welcome evening, is on Thursday, January 22 at 7pm, at St John’s Church Hall (74 Victoria Road, Dunoon – the red door opposite Hanover St car park). Rehearsals then continue every Thursday evening at 7pm. More information can be found on their Facebook page: CCCdunoon or visit cowalchoralclub.co.uk.
