Welcome to Show Off!


The next Show Off! will be on Friday the 3rd of February

at Cafe Koha.


Show Off! is a London version of the piano bars of New York.  It is a place where anyone who loves musical theatre can listen to songs from shows new and old - and where anyone who wants to can get up and perform.  Participants can (and often do) include enthusiastic musical theatre lovers, students, retirees, West End professionals and many more.


On the 3rd of February, the doors will as usual open at 8:00 p.m.; the music will kick off at 9 p.m. and continue for until 1 a.m.  Food and drink will be available throughout the evening.  


If you want to sing, just put your name and the song you want to sing on the sign-up sheet when you arrive.  You may bring your own music, but we also have music from a variety of shows.

Gavin JamesIt has been far too long since the last Show Off!  We hope that you will join us for the next one, on Friday the 16th of December.  Matthew Gent is hosting, with guest MD (and Show Off! regular) Gavin James at the piano.  It is shaping up to be a really wonderful night of pre-Christmas fun. 

Show Off! on 18 November 2011After the 16th of December we will be back on the 6th of January, when we resume our regular schedule of every other Friday night.  Regular Show Off! MD Nathan Martin is due to return at the beginning of February.

We had another great night at our last Show Off!, on the 18th of November.  Host Sarah Lark was brilliant and dazzling as always, and guest MD Michael Bradley made a delightful Show Off! debut.  Matthew Gent came along to join in the fun, and he and Sarah treated us to another marvelous duet.  In the photo to the left, Sarah, Matthew and Gavin are all adding vocal harmonies as Show Off! regular Niall Rooney sings (off-camera) accompanied by Michael.
