Our next production will be A Night at the Musicals! We will perform a collection of everyone’s favourite musical theatre songs for an evening full of singing and dancing. If you are interested in signing up – click here!
Our showcases are designed to show off all of our talented members, and everyone who signs up for a solo will be given one. If you want a solo, you will have to submit a self tape of you singing a song on our setlist by Friday 11th of April. Take a look below at our setlist.
The first rehearsal for the show will be on Sunday 6th of April, and we will rehearse every Tuesday evening and Sunday afternoon in preparation for our performances on the 5th and 6th of July.
Our taster session was a great success. If you missed this but would still like to be involved please or have any questions about the show please contact us.
Our first rehearsal for each show doubles up as a taster session – it is completely free to attend and helps give you an idea of what being a Meadowlark member is like, and how our rehearsals run.
These fun and chilled sessions usually involve some games and introductions, followed by learning sections of vocals and choreography from one or two of our numbers (which you can see listed here on the side!). There will also be plenty of opportunities to chat to current members, or to our founders, to ask any questions you may have.
If you have missed the taster session, you are more than welcome to come along to one of our regular rehearsals free of charge – but please contact us directly to arrange this.
We hold free taster sessions before starting rehearsals for each show to give you an idea of what a Meadowlark rehearsal is like.
These usually will involve introductions, games and learning a short song and dance. Don’t worry, you don’t need to prepare anything in advance.
We have just held our taster session for Spring Awakening but we will have information on our next taster session soon. Follow our social media for the latest updates.
If you cannot attend a taster session or miss the sign-up, don’t worry! You can come along to one of our rehearsals free of charge to get an idea of what Meadowlark is like. Please get in touch with us to arrange this.
We rehearse 7-9pm on Tuesdays and 1-5pm on Sundays at The Arts Centre in Guildford (GU1 2RE). Whilst you might not always be called for the full session, our rehearsal schedule will be jam-packed so it’s best to keep this time free each week. In some cases, it will be possible for us to adapt or amend our schedule to suit your availability, but please reach out to our team to discuss this before signing up for a show.
Not at all! All levels and abilities are welcome.
Showcases: If you’d like to perform in one of our showcases, we will ask you to audition if you’d like a solo. Everyone who signs up to be in the show will be in the show and we guarantee that everybody who auditions will get a solo part.
For those who do want a solo, the audition process will involve you sending in an individual singing audition (please choose a song from our showcase setlist, which you can find above) by Friday 11th April.
On the sign-up form, we will ask you about your confidence with dancing purely so that it can help us decide whether to place you in dance-heavy numbers or not. There is no formal dance audition process, but if you want to send in a clip of you dancing to show us your strengths, please feel free to do so!
Main shows: The audition process for each main show will differ depending on the creative team, but the same principle will apply – everybody who auditions to be in the show will be able to take part.
There are a variety of ways in which you can get involved at Meadowlark – we welcome applications for the creative team for our main shows which includes: director, choreographer, musical director, costume designer, set designer, stage manager, and more. We’re also always on the lookout for technical support for our showcases so if that’s something you’d like to assist with, please get in touch!
Each show will have a show fee which will vary from show to show – please see our Store page for further information. Payment plans can be arranged on a case-by-case basis – please contact the Committee to discuss this. Our goal is never to make a profit, but simply cover the costs of the shows so we can all keep doing what we love – performing!
We spend 3-4 months rehearsing for one show, which will either be a showcase (a selection of our favourite musical theatre songs) or a full musical show. Once the show is over, we will then have a short break to open taster sessions up to new members and start the whole process again!
Join our musical theatre group for an inclusive and supportive community. We welcome all backgrounds and skills for our next show. Collaborate, make friends, and learn new skills. Come along to your first rehearsal completely for free to help you decide!
