Hi everyone!

I’m Grace and I’m a vocal performance coach and singer.

Being a Lakes girl at heart, I moved back to Cumbria in 2019 and established my private singing studio, as well as a local performing arts school and non-profit organisation to bring more performing arts opportunities to the area for local young people.

I work with singers of all ages and levels on a daily basis; from professional performers to young singers, and those who just want to sing for fun!

We launched South Cumbria Musical Theatre Choir in September 2023, and have already sung with Gareth Malone in Glasgow and York as part of his national tour.

The choir has also collaborated with other Sing Space choirs in a charity music video for the Choir With No Name, participated in a fun Queen-themed Movember event and held an intimate Christmas event for friends and family.

We’ve got lots more in store for 2024 and would love you to join us, whether you’re a sensational soloist, or a shy shower singer!

I look forward to meeting you soon.

WHAT MAKES OUR CHOIRS SPECIAL

The Sing Space musical theatre choirs offer singers at all levels the opportunity to experience the joy of singing original musical theatre arrangements with like-minded musical theatre lovers. No audition needed for the regional choirs.

Led by qualified vocal coaches, you will benefit from expert and well-executed vocal technique instruction and learn how to use and develop your voice safely and effectively.

This is a musical theatre choir - we only sing songs from musical theatre. We are not an amateur dramatic society, so there’s no dancing or costumes.

The Sing Space musical theatre choirs offer performance opportunities throughout the year, ranging from local venues to iconic spaces such as Cadogan Hall in London. There are also opportunities to sing solos and/or in small groups, in a safe and supportive environment.

We recognise that members learn in different ways and come from a diverse range of musical backgrounds. With that in mind, we offer a multi-channel learning experience. You will learn new pieces each week with the guidance of your choir leader and be provided with sheet music to follow. You can support your learning between choir sessions using your vocal guide tracks and/or YouTube lyric/audio guide videos.

We know life can get busy and you won’t always be able to make every choir session. Each session is live-streamed for you to watch in real-time or later at your own convenience, so no-one will feel they are falling behind.

Group singing offers mental health and wellbeing benefits, such as reducing stress and supporting social connection. The Sing Space choirs are a supportive and inclusive community.
