Franklin Voices is a vibrant and welcoming community choir with groove at its heart! We come together every Monday night to sing, connect, and create uplifting music. With live musicians accompanying our performances, we bring energy and soul to every song. Beyond singing, we love to socialise, with a range of events offered throughout the year.

Whether you're an experienced singer, a slightly shy or nervous singer or just love to harmonise, Franklin Voices is all about voice, rhythm, and community with a bit of a laugh along the way. Come and join the fun!

Whether you’re stepping into drama for the first time, returning after many years, or an experienced amateur actor looking to develop your skills alongside your existing theatre work, Franklin Drama offers an enjoyable way to build confidence, develop skills and connect with others through the shared experience of theatre-making.

The weekly Franklin Drama Club begins in January 2026 and provides a regular opportunity to meet, create and develop your craft with a friendly group of adults. Alongside this, our Theatre Collective meets monthly to explore scripts, techniques and creative ideas in more depth (launching Summer 2026).
