Rock Choir is the pioneering contemporary choir of the UK and remains unique with over 33,000 members participating in approximately 400 local communities.

It offers all ages an alternative experience to the traditional classical or community choir introducing members to feel-good pop, rock and contemporary chart songs. Its uplifting ethos of fun, friendship and community spirit is a huge part of its attraction, where members enjoy a dynamic and busy new social life and connect with their community. At an individual level, it helps improve people’s well-being by building their self-confidence, self-esteem

Rock Choir performs at approximately 2000 events each year from local community and charity fund-raisers to high-profile national events. It helps raise thousands of pounds a year for local and national charities through these events.

There are no auditions and no requirement to read music when joining Rock Choir. Everyone is welcome and can sign up for a FREE taster session by visiting www.rockchoir.com or call 01252 714276 for further information.

This group now consists of two elements under two leaders:

1. 5.00pm – 6.00pm, led by Chris Pearson is for beginners and novice ukulele players who want to learn and further their personal skills and the art of playing the ukulele.
2. 6.00pm – 7.00pm, led by David Wall is for established players, of not only ukulele, but also other instruments and those who may just want to sing along, perhaps perform for the public in a string band and have fun with their music.

The vision of the Shaftesbury Community Ukulele Group is to involve other instruments and form a working community string band. It will evolve, but for now, encourages anyone interested to either come along with their instrument and enthusiasm, or contact David Wall on 01747 854108 or email dorsetnvs@hotmail.com.

Ever been in an infants’ school classroom and listened to their chatter? Now’s your chance! The Shaftesbury Arts Centre Music & Drama Group’s Autumn production is ‘The Flint Street Nativity’ by Tim Firth.

Meet our group of children – all played by adults. There’s the bossy one … the timid one … the spoiled one … the ruffian … the obsessive one … the new one trying to fit in … You’ll recognise them all as they prepare to perform their first nativity play. Hilarious misunderstandings, sad revelations and some interesting insight into their parents’ lives!
