For the first time in four years, the TestostaTones will be returning to The Seagull Theatre, Lowestoft on Friday 1st April with our show The Story of Doo-Wop.![]()
TICKETS AVAILABLE NOW! 🎟🎭📅![]()
![]()
During the early 1950s, quartets sung on street corners, in barbershops and churches in a style which became known as Doo-Wop, paving the way for rock ‘n’ roll. As the groups moved from the streets into recording studios, so the popularity of the genre grew.![]()

Along with radio disc jockey and your host for the evening Chuck Anderson, The Testosta-Tones (who have sung for the Queen, live on Radio 2 and at some of the most iconic venues in the U.K.) will perform such popular songs as Blue Moon, Earth Angel, Why Do Fools Fall in Love, Runaround Sue, Teenager in Love and many others, presenting ‘The Story of Doo-Wop’. 🎙🎼❤️

**COVID UPDATE** ![]()
Given how transmissible the new Omicron variant seems to be, I thought I would update everybody about the procedures and COVID control measures that Beccles Community Choir sessions will adhere to in order to keep everybody as safe as we are able to. ![]()
![]()
MASKS![]()
We will continue to request that everybody who attends (with the exception of those who have a mask exemption) wears a facecovering/mask to rehearsal. ![]()
We will REMOVE THESE when we sing (although, if you feel safer wearing a mask for the entire session, please DO and you can find recommendations for masks made to sing in at this link www.beccleschoir.co.uk/join-us/ - scroll to the bottom)![]()
![]()
TESTING![]()
In line with government recommendations, you may consider testing using a LFD test prior to attending rehearsal![]()
I appreciate that these kits are now becoming difficult to obtain via Gov.uk and pharmacies and if we bear in mind that even NHS workers are only required to test twice a week, then I don't want to encourage obsessive use of these - especially since they don't offer any protection and are not 100% reliable. ![]()
(N.B: If you have symptoms, have been in contact with somebody who has tested positive or have been contacted by Track & Trace - then you MUST test (negative) in order to attend choir.) ![]()
![]()
YOUR DECISION![]()
I had COVID over Christmas and only felt unwell for about 12 hours but I know that others may be affected more severely. ![]()
To encourage people to feel safe, I will test before each session. It's important to remember that we have these procedures and control measures in place to reduce the risk of contracting COVID but that it is not possible to reduce the risk to zero. Therefore, if you are still worried, please stay at home.![]()
![]()
If anybody decides to exclude themselves from rehearsals but is missing singing, please feel free to join my Online Choir www.onlinechoir.uk - we have people from several different countries and timezones and we sing a broadly similar repertoire but with mostly different songs.

We all knew it anyway but it’s worth a listen!![]()

See you all next Tuesday… booking is now open. HAPPY NEW YEAR!![]()
