Songs of Surrey stories take centre stage
Leatherhead and Dorking Advertiser
|May 01, 2025
THIS summer, the stories of Surrey take centre stage in Sing a Song of Surrey a one-of-a-kind musical event that brings the county's rich history to life through the power of song at the Rhoda Mcgaw Theatre on Sunday June 15, hosted by Susie Dent.
-
Featuring brand-new, original music inspired by Surrey's most fascinating tales, the production has already received the royal seal of approval, with songs from the programme performed for HRH Prince Edward during a Royal Visit to Woking last November.
Premiering for one night only, this special event showcases the work of ten emerging songwriters from Surrey, selected following a county-wide callout in early 2024.
From iconic landmarks to beloved local figures, their songs transform Surrey's past into unforgettable melodies, performed by a West End cast and hosted by renowned lexicographer, author, and proud Woking native Susie Dent.
