The Rainbow Chorus winter concert was postponed at the eleventh hour on December 15 due to water damage at St George Church which rendered the building unsafe.
THE concert, entitled Les Misteltoe, has been rescheduled for Saturday, January 12, 2019 at 7.30 pm (doors and bar open from 6.30 pm) and will be conducted by their musical director Aneesa Chaudhry.
The decision to postpone the concert was not taken lightly—knowing that many local folk were already geared up for the evening and some members’ family and friends had travelled from as far as Belgium to see the show—but with an anticipated audience of over 450 guests in addition to the 60-strong choir and band of volunteers, there really was nothing else that could have been done in good conscience considering the water damage to the church electrics.
On a positive note, St. George’s Church, the choir’s home for several years, has been busy fixing problems with the building (including removing some dead seagulls which were blocking guttering and diverting rain into the church!).
So (once again!) go along and join the Rainbow Chorus on the barricades as they round off their 21st birthday celebrations with a bang!
The Rainbow Chorus is known for its eclectic repertoire and Brighton & Hove’s oldest LGBT choir will be bringing the sounds of the West End to Kemp Town with a rabble-rousing and rip-roaring medley of songs from the long-running musical Les Misérables.
From France to Freddie, the chorus will also be performing a selection of iconic hits from one of the greatest rock bands of all times, Queen.
It may be January, but you can expect all the feel-good cheer of the Rainbow Chorus promising a right royal post-Christmas cracker of an evening!
