Cabarets...
As part of its ongoing commitment to new musical theatre writing, The Scenic Route aims to provide opportunities for new works - at various stages of development - to be showcased and celebrated through its cabarets.
Sneak Preview Open Mic cabarets are scheduled on a regular basis with an open invitation to composers and lyricists to submit new work for consideration. Please email cabarets@scenicroutetheatre.co.uk to receive information as it becomes available.
Please also contact us if you are interested in a bespoke cabaret for your event.
Sneak Preview Cabarets
Some lovely things people have said….
"The Sneak Preview cabarets are brilliant, entertaining occasions for musical theatre composers like me to come out of the closet and give their songs an airing infront of a lively, friendly audience. It's a simple but highly effective formula and is very slickly run by the very likeable Scenic Route crew. Thanks indeed!"
"After being featured in three exciting Scenic Route showcases I feel the need to congratulate Tammy, Haf & co on their enterprise and energy. Organisations such as theirs are invaluable to practitioners like myself who benefit enormously from a chance to air new material infront of a committed and interested live audience."
