"As we say, the energy balance is between us as a nine, and it also very much bounces in and out to the audience. It’s that wonderful feedback loop where we feed off them, they feed off us, and when everything is just right, it’s a heck of a good time," shared lead actor Richard Lock.
With its foot-stomping melodies and heartfelt performances, The Choir Of Man promises an unforgettable night out for music enthusiasts and theater lovers alike.
The musical also offers audience members free beer.
Free beer is another thing that makes the experience unique.
"Right from the very beginning, unlike most shows that you will see, there’s no curtain and there’s no fourth wall. So, as soon as you enter the space, you are in our pub. We welcome you to be a part of our gang and one of the guys," said Lock.

So, every song that we explore in the pub, usually that person will take the lead and showcase their particular talent.
