Our popular Song Trivia event is back, still hosted by the energetic Vicky Jacobs from Glee Club with her choir, Glee Plus. But this time, we’re also visiting the Palais Theatre in Franklin, where we’re joined by local Cygnet musician Rose Wilson and her choirs the Cygnet Song Circle and The Little Boat Choir!
It’s not just about music trivia – we’ve got questions about history, culture, travel, and science too, so there’s something for everyone to enjoy. What makes our trivia nights special are the choirs, who will sing some of the questions, answers, and even bits in between! And, of course, it wouldn’t be a Festival of Voices event without the opportunity for a singalong. So, if you feel like joining in, be sure to warm up your vocal cords!
Everyone is welcome at this all-ages event, and drinks and snacks will be available for purchase**.
Plus, your Song Trivia ticket includes free access to that evening’s regional Singers’ Lounge! From 6.30 pm, the Palais Theatre will become a special evening of curated and spontaneous musical performances. Enjoy sitting back and listening or even express your interest in performing as part of the night’s lineup. With something for everyone at Song Trivia and Singers’ Lounge, don’t miss out on this event that sells out every year.
To express your interest in performing as part of this regional Singers’ Lounge, contact Rose at [email protected].

Rose holds a Bachelor of Music with a major in vocal performance, has taught singing and choirs for over 20 years, and has always delighted in singing in as many different styles and exploring as many different instruments as possible.
Rose can wax lyrical for hours about all the reasons why everyone is allowed to sing (whether they think they're any good or not), about why it’s learnable, and about how our culture often robs us of the delight of singing-making under the weight of its various baggages around all things creative.
Rose loves community choirs and considers singing in one of the most soul-affirming, meaning-making, people-connecting and joy-inducing things a human can do. Rose has run choirs and workshops in many places, and currently runs three choirs in the Huon Valley; The Cygnet Song Circle, The Little Boat Choir, and the Huon Homeschool Choir.
