The Heartbreak Choir

SEASON: 20 March to 29 March 2026

Written by: Aidan Fennessy

By Arrangement with Nova Weetman c/- Creative Representation

A terrible incident fractures the local community choir leaving a number of its members struggling to reconcile with the fallout. Yearning for the comfort and connection that singing gave them, they form a new choir to try to create something hopeful through their shared passion. This warm, funny and moving play takes us on a journey through heartbreak and reconnection through the power of music, friendship and community. 

This production contains strong language, adult themes, references to sexual assault and suicide. Theatrical haze is used.

Running Time: Approximately 2 hours and 40 minutes including a 20 minute Interval.

Congratulations to the Cast and Production Team for a Fabulous Season!!
