We are an enthusiastic group of amateur performers dedicated primarily to performing the works of W.S. Gilbert and A.S. Sullivan.
This year we are looking forward to performing "The Pirates of Penzance".
The story goes:
Imagine a beautiful sunny day on a beach in Cornwall. Queen Victoria is on the throne. A Pirate King with a forgiving streak and rollicking pirates, a group of cowardly Police, a Major-General and his many young daughters, a young lad with a true sense of duty and the story of young love in a plot that hangs around the fact that our protagonist (the young lad) is born on the 29th of February.
Bring your imagination to life and join us in April 2027 to watch one of Gilbert & Sullivan's best known operettas.
Tickets will be available in January 2027
