Together they will perform a new arrangement by Technicolor Choir director Patrick Steed of “From Now On” from “The Greatest Showman”, including a sparkle of “Home” from “The Wiz”, showcasing the blending of voices from different corners of the globe in a celebration of musical unity and creativity.
"Our selection of songs for 'Travelado’ reflects a diverse tapestry of musical genres and destinations, capturing the essence of travel in every note. From the soaring melodies to soulful rhythms, each song is a musical postcard that invites you to embark on a journey of discovery and imagination. With an harmonious blend of classics and contemporary hits, we aim to transport our audience to different parts of the world through song," says Director Ellen Wells.
