About Us
Our story
Formed in October 2021, City of Stars was created by professional vocal coach & performer Candi Underwood.
Recognising a need for singers & performers to come together and connect in a new post-pandemic landscape, City of Stars was created to provide a fun, exciting community where any show-tune is welcome and all things musical theatre are encouraged!
Since its beginnings City of Stars has grown into a thriving community with no-shortage of theatre trips, gigs and a highlight of the week for all involved. Now opening our fourth choir in January 2026, we’re excited to show Worthing what we got and welcome a new crew of musical theatre lovers to the family!
Good singing
We’re a choir of performers. We take massive pride in how we sound and grab every opportunity to get on stage and show off our talent. Our choir leaders are chosen for their industry experience and ability to deliver high-quality teaching while creating a supportive, encouraging space. That’s why we see our members learning and progressing, developing vocally, and growing in confidence week after week.
Our core values
Good friends
We might be serious about singing, but fun, joy and connection are just as important. Our members don’t just stand next to each other and sing – they get to know each other and build a supportive, social community that goes beyond choir night. We want our choirs to be spaces where everyone feels free and welcome to be the fullest, most self-expressed version of who they are – because real belonging is the opposite of fitting in.
Good teamwork
Our choirs are never competitive and always collaborative. There are no egos, hierarchy or cliques. Everyone’s contribution matters, and everyone’s growth is important – not just our own. We celebrate each other’s wins, cheer each other on, and keep our focus on the positive. We lead with respect, kindness, and encouragement, always.
Good vibes
Our choirs are spaces where people want to be. For many members, being part of City of Stars becomes an essential part of their mental well-being. We don’t take that for granted. We go out of our way to make every choir practice welcoming, friendly, and full of positive energy. We’re proudly inclusive, accessible, and accepting of everyone – because when the vibes are good, the music’s even better.
