These excerpts will be linked by snatches of the dialogue from the operas together with reminiscing from Gilbert, Sullivan and D’Oyly Carte – all of whom, by the wonders of modern technology ! – have agreed to join us each evening of the 20th, 21st, 23rd and 24th October 2006.Rehearsals and auditions are now just getting under way and anyone wishing to ” overcome their diffidence and natural timidity” and join in the ” tripping hither and thither” should come along to Wykham Hall, Banbury School on Monday evenings asap. (We will not be meeting during the w. com.29th May).The show will be under the baton of Philip Shaw, directed by Janet Bishop and choreographed by Sharon Ulla.
