What is The Choir of Man about?

The Choir of Man is set in a typical British pub called The Jungle, known as the best pub in the world, where nine regulars form a pub choir and share their lives through songs and spoken-word monologues. It is a feel-good story about community, friendship, and men supporting each other, mixing big laughs with touching moments about love, loneliness, and mental health.

The tour’s age guidance is suitable for ages 10 and over, noting that there is no swearing but the show includes on‑stage alcohol use and some adult themes. Family guides for the West End run suggest it can also work from around age 6+ with parental discretion, especially for older children and teens comfortable with a lively, gig‑style atmosphere.

Has The Choir of Man won or been nominated for any awards?

The Choir of Man is an Olivier Award‑nominated show in the Best Entertainment or Comedy Play category, a major honour in London theatre. It has also won festival awards such as Best Music and Pick of the Fringe at the Adelaide Fringe and has become a worldwide smash hit with productions and tours in several countries.

What kind of music will I hear in the show?

The show features live covers of well‑known songs by artists such as Queen, Luther Vandross, Sia, Paul Simon, Adele, Guns N’ Roses, Avicii, and Katy Perry. Nine multi‑instrumentalist singers perform everything from big rock anthems and pop ballads to folk tunes and choral harmonies, backed by a live band.

What is the atmosphere like at Hall for Cornwall for this show?

Hall for Cornwall is the largest theatre in Truro, designed for musicals, concerts, and touring shows, so it can comfortably host The Choir of Man’s pub‑gig energy. Combined with the working bar on stage and interactive style, the evening feels more like a big night out in a friendly local than a formal musical.

Is there audience interaction during the performance?

Yes, The Choir of Man is known for its interactive, informal style, with cast members often chatting to the audience, walking through the auditorium, and encouraging clapping or gentle singing along. A small number of audience members are usually invited onto the stage to sit at the bar and may even be served a free beer, adding to the feeling that you are part of the pub.

Do I need to know the story or songs before going?

You do not need any prior knowledge to enjoy The Choir of Man, as the story is simple and clearly told through short monologues and songs. Even if you do not recognise every track, the mix of familiar hits, strong vocals, and emotional storytelling makes the show easy to follow and very accessible.

How does the touring version differ from the West End show?

The West End production at the Arts Theatre runs for about 90 minutes with no interval, while the touring version adds an interval and runs around 2 hours 5 minutes. Both feature the same basic pub setting, characters, and jukebox song list, but the tour is scaled for larger regional venues like Hall for Cornwall.

How can I get cheap tickets for The Choir of Man in Truro?

To find cheaper tickets, focus on earlier‑week performances such as Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday, which are often priced lower than weekend shows, and choose seats further back or higher up instead of premium front stalls. Book as early as you can before prices rise with demand, look out for concessions or offers for students, under‑26s, seniors, and local residents, and consider going as a group to benefit from group booking discounts.
