P&O’s Workplace Choir are set to perform with international star, Susan Boyle on her tour at the Hammersmith Apollo next month.

The performance, taking place on April 6 will see the talented Dover singers perform to more than three thousand fans in London.

The choir were thrust into the spotlight last year, when they won the BBC2 show, The Choir, hosted by Gareth Malone.

The star, Susan Boyle was the runner up in the ITV show, Britain’s Got Talent in 2009 and has since recorded the best-selling UK debut of all time.

She is also renowned for her rendition of I Dreamed a Dream, originally written by Andrew Lloyd Webber.

For her first UK tour Miss Boyle has invited the nation’s top choirs to join her on stage.

Spokesman for P&O Ferries, Brian Rees, said: “The London concert is the biggest date of the tour, by far, and our choir’s participation is an incredible compliment to the professionalism of our singers.

He added: “We were pleasantly surprised with the warm reception and packed house at our last performance, which was in Dover Town Hall a month ago.

"Next thing we knew, Susan Boyle’s agent was on the line asking if we can perform at The Apollo.

"It’s a once in a lifetime opportunity that caught us completely off guard.

"It is both extremely flattering for our choristers, and a little nerve-racking as it means getting to grips with a whole new set of material.

"When you bear in mind that our choir didn’t even exist ten months ago, to be treading the boards with an internationally acclaimed star so soon really is the stuff that dreams are made of.”
