How it works.
What is a show choir?
A Show Choir is a performance group combining choral singing with choreographed movement or dance, sometimes adding a thematic element to the show.
Led by Choir Director Jen, you’ll learn and perform songs from all sorts of genres such as rock, pop, jazz, musical theatre, soul, disco, country, and more!
What does it involve?
Our main Show Choir rehearses once a week on Tuesday evenings, and performs a number of shows and concerts throughout the year.
As an alternative to the main Show Choir, offering a similar experience with a lower commitment, we also run the Friday Crew choir group, which will rehearse a smaller portion of the main Choir’s performances, and join the main Choir for selected songs at the end of semester show.
Our groups are very social and supportive, and it’s a great way to let your hair down and have a little fun.
How to audition.
Currently, the Sunshine Coast Show Choir has around 50 members in its ensemble.
We welcome new auditions in January and July for the following semester. We run two semesters (or ‘seasons’) a year.
Membership for the main Choir is $275 per semester, and includes access to our full rehearsal platform which features choreography videos, vocal part recordings, sheet music, tips and tricks, performance calendar and much more. Rehearsals are from 6.30-8.30pm on Tuesdays.
Membership for the Friday Crew choir group is $198 per semester. Rehearsals are from 1-2pm on Fridays.
The audition comprises just a few easy steps. It may look a little daunting, but remember, we’re all here to learn and have fun!
Step 1: Book Audition
Please complete a brief application form in advance of your audition.

Then book an in-person audition time via the calendar HERE.
Step 2: Vocal & Movement Auditions
At your audition, the first part is a 10 minute vocal audition with Choir Director Jen and an assistant. You’ll perform a one minute solo performance of a song a your choice. We’ll also discuss vocal part, and conduct a brief range and harmony test.
Following the vocal audition, you will learn 30-60 seconds of a dance routine with one of our choreographers.
Step 3: First Rehearsal
Come to a rehearsal and make sure you found your tribe and let us see how you fit!
The Director's decision will be made immediately after the first rehearsal and is final.
