Theatre Royal Winchester is hosting two sing-along versions of family-favourite musicals, Encanto and The Greatest Showman on Saturday 17 June.
Encanto tells the story of the Madrigals – an extraordinary family who live hidden in the mountains of Colombia in a charmed placed called Encanto, which has blessed every child in the family with a unique gift… except daughter Mirabel!
However, Mirabel may be the Madrigals’ last hope when she discovers that the magic surrounding the Encanto is now in danger – and it is she who tries to save that magic.
Meanwhile, The Greatest Showman tells the story of famous showman, P.T. Barnum, whose hired circus performers – including a bearded lady and a dwarf –face discrimination; while his tour with a famous singer, celebrated by the aristocracy, sees him neglect his family and distance himself from his troupe.
But, a fire that destroys his circus inspires him to rethink his life – build a new show with the performers and spend time with his loved ones.
The theatre’s special screenings of Encanto and The Greatest Showman not only feature each film’s song lyrics on-screen for audiences to sing-along with, but a live host who will teach the audience dance moves to re-enact during the screening.
Plus, a free props bag (for audience members aged 3+). Fancy dress is encouraged! With full audience participation essential – the audience are the stars!
The screenings are brought to the theatre by the producers behind Sing-a-Long-a The Sound of Music, Grease and Frozen, and many more.
Sing-a-Long-a Encanto and Sing-a-Long-a The Greatest Showman are film screenings, not live stage shows. Tickets for NT Live cost £18 each, with discounted rates for Members and Concessions.
Sing-a-Long-a Encanto will be at Theatre Royal Winchester on Saturday 17 June at 1.30pm, and Sing-a-Long-a The Greatest Showman will be at Theatre Royal Winchester on Saturday 17 June at 7pm. For more information or to book tickets visit: theatreroyalwinchester.co.uk or call 01962 840 440.
