One of the worst forms of antisocial behaviour that my constituents tell me about involves people’s lifestyles and actions having a really detrimental effect on their neighbours’ quality of life. What proposals are the Government bringing forward to help the police and local authorities to deal with this problem?
You should pop along. You never know, what future talent you might see. Indeed, judging by the quality in the heats, you will be highly impressed by the quality of the finalists. Here, we filmed vocalists, percussionists and another pianist as they receive invaluable advice from a representative of the Royal Opera House.
The musicians are at different stages of their careers. Some at grade one and some at grade seven but these invaluable sessions allow them to play their piece before having one to one tuition with the expert.
The show transformed the London Cruise Terminal in Tilbury into a unique performance space for the weekend. On Saturday evening alongside Tilbury Tightrope we saw young people and professional hip hop artists throwdown their skills in the Slam Night, co-ordinated by local young entrepreneur Jordan Bull, part of the Frontline Crew.
The Tribute to Abba Forever is one of the country’s leading international tribute shows and theatre audiences from across Great Britain and Sweden have long enjoyed this superb recreation of possibly the world‘s greatest pop band.
Over ten years of vital dance making, Anjali Dance Company has worked with some of the best choreographic talent in the UK including Mathew Hawkins, Maresa von Stockert, Charlotte Vincent and New Art Club. Now Anjali’s internationally renowned company of dancers with learning disabilities have taken on the challenge themselves with Unexploded Stories.
Originally produced by Visconti for the Thin White Duke’s 2001 album Heathen, Films of Colour’s version of Slow Burn came to Visconti’s attention earlier this year following the online buzz around the band’s single Capital/Persinette. The band include former Gable Hall and Palmer's College student, Jack Allinson and shot one of their earlier videos in the Thurrock area.
The girls have proven very popular on all sorts of circuits with their mix of traditional forties numbers mashed up with modern tunes from Lady Gaga to The Saturdays. The girls include former Chadwell resident Khylie Williams who is an old friend of Your Voice supremo Shana Elliott-Hayers.
THE TILBURY TIGHTROPE plays on Saturday and Sunday at the Cruise Terminal in the Port of Tilbury. There has been a huge amount of work going on behind the scenes.
It’s an evening of song, music and comedy and the tickets cost £6 and for that modest price you will also get a glass of Bubbly and a slice of Birthday cake in the foyer after the show! The evening will be hosted by John Scowen, Chairman of Thurrock Arts Council, well known local actor and drama festival adjudicator along with some vaguely familiar time travelling companions who should turn up as well! John will also be assisted by the familiar professional voiceover tones of Mike Jones.
Our penultimate performance is from Taylor. Once again much thanks must go to Thurrock Music Services plus the Thameside Theatre. Your Vice will return in February.
NOW HERE IS A really interesting singer. Rutendo's voice reminds us a little of Nina Simone and we hope that nobody trains the individual nature of the Grays School singer. Rutendo is one of those singers that you would like to hear more of.
WHAT A SUNNY day at Orsett Hall for the launch of this year's Thameside pantomime and what a sunny disposition, Big Brother 2007 winner, Brian Belo has as he encourages everyone to come on down and visit the panto that runs from Dec 7th until January 7th 2012.
Gable Hall's Ashleigh Hunt has been a case in point with a mature and highly listenable voice. Which is a credit to herself, staff at Gable Hall and the music services.
ANOTHER FINE performance from a Gable Hall student who is a versatile young artist. This time at Your Voice it was clear that there were students who not only sang but acted and could play musical instruments. Versatility is clearly the key.
