Activities at Atsitsa Bay, Greece

The Community of Song with Luke Meredith

Sun 9 - Sun 16 Jun 2024

We all love singing along to our favourite tunes, and research from various universities has indicated that singalong could be as good for you as yoga (University of Gothenburg), improves mental health (University of London) and actually makes you live longer (Harvard and Yale).

This course explores singalong, what particular songs mean to people, and what happens when we share that song - as well as being a jolly old knees-up!


What's included?

Luke's course is held in Atsitsa Bay on Skyros island in Greece and is part of the wide range of courses and activities available. The holiday includes full board twin shared accommodation in an eco-hut. Single upgrades and twin shares in the house are available. Chat through the website, call +44 (0)1983 86 55 66 or email holidays@skyros.com to discuss your requirements. 

 


About Luke Meredith

Luke Meredith, or Mister Meredith, is a cabaret entertainer and compère, and is at the forefront of the revival in piano singalong nights. His singalongs have featured on the BBC, Channel 5 and London Live and, as well as the many live gigs (safety measures permitting), he is now working with Intergenerational Music Making to bring them to the online world. 

His cabaret work has taken him to almost every London venue, including Proud Cabaret, Royal Vauxhall Tavern, Cafe de Paris, Fontaine's and Leicester Square Theatre, and to high profile theatres around the UK from Newcastle Theatre Royal down to Kings Theatre in Portsmouth via Birmingham Old Rep. His solo shows at the Edinburgh Fringe have gathered four and five star reviews, while he continues to pack houses with his variety show Magic Faraway Cabaret, now in its 10th year. 

Luke taught singing at City Lit on the accredited drama courses and the open programme 2009-2018.  He has a BA Hons in Music Drama and Dance from Birmingham University and a PTLLS and CTLLS(1) from City Lit, and continues to research and develop new vocal teaching techniques. 

“One of the greatest cabaret performers of his generation” Scotsgay 

“A subversive compère who takes pride in getting the City boys a little hot under the collar“ The Telegraph 

“Great fun” The Sun

What people say about Luke and his courses:

Spectacularly good!

Luke is fun, fun, fun! 

Luke showed great patience and kindness in encouraging us to perform. 

Luke - challenged me and I achieved new goals and found my voice. I might join a choir on my return.

Fantastic workshop - finding your voice.
