Spotlights Show Choir is Exeter’s only musical theatre show choir, performing hits from a wide range of musicals.
A great way to be involved with the society throughout the year is through Spotlights Show Choir, Exeter's only musical theatre show choir, performing hits from a range of musicals. We perform in two Exeter venues, and then tour to the Edinburgh Festival Fringe! Our show, 'A Night at the Musicals' has sold out at the Fringe festival for 3 years running!
All our members can also get involved in our weekly workshop classes that combine all the joy of musical theatre whilst learning the ins and outs. Taking part in sessions targeting different areas. For example, Ballet Technique sessions, or help with sight reading music!
Becoming a member of Footlights provides opportunities to be involved in the cast, band, production, stage and technical teams of our shows, as well as stash, socials throughout the year and being part of the biggest musical theatre society on campus!
