Join in the fun at I'd Do Anything musical events
|
Viewers of BBC One's I'd Do Anything who have been singing along on the sofa
whilst enjoying the show now have the opportunity to have a go
themselves!
Accompanying the television series will be a number of free BBC
Learning events across the UK giving thousands of people the
chance to sing as part of a group with the BBC Singers and
musicians from the BBC Orchestras, as well as some familiar faces.
Adults and children over the age of eight are welcome to attend these
fun and friendly sessions with songs from musical theatre.
All
levels of ability will be catered for – from keen amateurs to
absolute beginners who have never dared sing in public before.
