MUCS Rehearsals in 2023

Rehearsal venue

In 2023, MUCS will be rehearsing in the beautiful Wyselaskie Auditorium.

MUCS have resumed Wednesday evening in person rehearsals for 2023 at Wyselaskie Auditorium from 6.45pm to 9.30pm, and all prospective or former members interested in joining this year are encouraged to come along ! 


See REHEARSAL VENUES on this website for further information. 


FOR A DETAILED REHEARSAL SCHEDULE, PLEASE VIST THE REHEARSAL SCHEDULE PAGE (CLICK HERE) 

Social Events

Weekly pre-rehearsal dinner: MUCS members regularly meet at the Clyde Hotel before rehearsal on a Wednesday evening for a quick dinner. If you're looking for some company after lectures, or want to get to know a few more choir members, then you're always welcome to join.


Weekly post- rehearsal drinks: MUCS members usually gather at the Clyde Hotel for informal drinks at the pub after rehearsals each Wednesday evening. Its cheap, and you don't have to actually drink to come along, but it's a great way to get to know people better and make some new friends!


Other social events:  MUCS enjoys a number of social events throughout the year including costume parties, pizza nights, wine and cheese events, dinners, trivia nights, and various other social events. Whilst Covid disrupted events in 2020-22, we are hopeful that in 2023 many of these will return, so stay tuned for more details!


FREE PIZZA NIGHT

PUB NIGHT 

following rehearsal on Wednesday 15 March MUCS will enjoy a rooftop drinks function at the Clyde Hotel

Performances and future tours
