Crowdfunding since 2010

Das Musik- und Comedy-Duo Carrington-Brown präsentiert seine erste Orchestershow "Comedy Meets Classics" mit dem Berliner "Swonderful Orchester"

Rebecca and Colin, have long dreamed of performing with an orchestra. With the Berlin based "Swonderful Orchestra"and Conductor Clíodhna Ní Aodáin, this dream can come true! Together we have written a program in which not only Britons meet in Berlin, but also comedy meets classical music. The show is a trip around the world, through different continents, music styles and epochs, from opera to jazz to folk and film music - eye-winking, entertaining and highly musical.

What is this project all about?

Such a program is quite a financial risk, as it has to be developed and rehearsed before we put it on stage in all its glory. The first three performances will take place in Tipi in April (7-9), but since there is no budget for the orchestra, we, Colin and Rebecca, have to pay for this. We would like to pay the orchestra and its great musicians appropriately and therefore we hope to raise € 12,500 with you and your help to make these and hopefully more ideas possible.
What if you want to support us but do not live in Berlin?
All supporters will get a link to download a recording of this unique show available! So you can watch the show from the comfort of your own home.

What is the project goal and who is the project for?

The aim of the project is to put this program on the stage - which is only achieved if all the musicians of the orchestra are adequately paid.
Target group are all lovers of good entertainment; People who appreciate music and comedy; Fans who want to help with the birth of a brand new show.

Why would you support this project?

Art is created because artists are taking risks: creatively and financially. Sometimes, however, the financial risks are so high that they prevent the emergence of new projects or are only possible under (self) exploitation of all parties involved. We rely on the power of crowdfunding, on the other hand, to go artistically new ways and, on the other hand, to adequately reward them - and to entertain all our supporters in the best way!

How will we use the money if the project is successfully funded?

All the money goes into the development and financing of the show. If we succeed in raising the amount, we will not only use the money to pay all the participants appropriately (especially the great orchestral members), but also let the show be professionally recorded. We provide this record for all supporters and it also serves to promote the show so that we can bring them to other stages all over Germany.

Who are the people behind the project?

Rebecca Carrington and Colin Brown aka Carrington-Brown are a sympathetic, multi-awarded music comedy duo that has been living in Germany for 10 years. Their charming boundaries between classical and pop, combined with relevant British humor, have made them a favorite in the music and comedy scene.

The Irish conductor Clíodhna Ní Aodáin, who now lives in Switzerland, studied cello with Rebecca at the Royal Northern College of Music in Manchester, UK. With Rebecca, she is not only a lover for music and a long-lasting friendship, but now also this wonderful project, which she initiated with Carrington-Brown.
