Group leader Janet Lord said: “We needed more cover, but it has been great to have an influx of new blood. It keeps everyone on their toes and means we can be more adventurous and experimental. You bounce off each other.”
Encore are known for their ‘harmonies with a touch of hilarity’ as they create storylines around the songs they choose for each show and mix comedy skits with their vocal performances.
This year’s show will feature a tribute to the NHS in its 70th year, as well as songs by Andrew Lloyd Webber, Abba, Simon and Garfunkel and The Rat Pack, as well as music from Carousel and Jersey Boys, backed by a three-piece band.
