Held in one of Tasmania’s favourite live music venues, and with Launceston’s very own piano man – Travis Hennessy – at the helm, it’ll be you sharing the stage and bringing us home with a rousing rendition of One Day More from Les Misérables. But you won’t be doing it alone.
This year, Choir in the Pub will be joined by not one, but three of Australia’s greatest stars. And what do they all have in common? They’ve all stood centre stage for the French revolution.
Josh Piterman, fresh from London’s West End as Jean Viljean will be joined by Patrice Tipoki (Fantine; Australian Tour and West End) and Kerrie Anne Greenland (Helpmann Award winner for Eponine) to dream the biggest dream.
