Coaching workshop turns into a musical

A unique musical, “The Workshop, A Dress Rehearsal for Life!” written by renowned life coach Dr Cherie Carter-Scott, and based on the numerous coaching-workshops she has conducted, in more than 30 countries over four decades has its world premiere in Bangkok on May 18.

Like the famed Broadway musical “A Chorus Line” which was about various artists auditioning for the chorus line in a stage-production, this musical is about various characters gathering together for a “Personal Development” workshop.
The play is comprised of 11 individuals, of diverse ethnicity, occupation, sexual preference, who face challenges and are seeking solutions.

The idea of writing a stage musical production based on her experiences, had been in her head for many years. She refers to the play as a musical for the young and old, for anyone who has “challenges” and wants “changes” in their lives. 
“Workshop” has a live band and an excellent technical team including opera singer Stefan Sanchez of the Grand Opera Thailand company and choreographer Darren Royston.
