Singers who love musical theatre are invited to join a new choir set up by a Stevenage vocal couch.

Jasmin Keshavarsi, who has worked as both a vocal coach and a performer, set up the choir to give singers the chance to work with a professional coach and "belt out showtunes together".

She said: "The singers will learn to get the most from their voice. We will cover breathing, resonance, posture and range and we are looking for people who are really enthusiastic about musicals.

"Singing is so good for mental health, we all benefit from singing and from the social aspect of singing together."

During lockdown, Jasmin joined the Sing Space musical theatre choir, run by West End coach Rachel Lynes, and loved it so much she wnated to bring the experience to her local area - reaching those who may not have a chance to get close to the West End.

The choir will launch on Wednesday, September 20 at John Henry Newman School, and will meet weekly for 90 minutes.

Members will sing a variety of musical theatre hits and new material, with a chance to sing alongside Gareth Malone OBE later this year.
