Under the baton of Musical Director Cecily Woodberry, the Singularity Choir is once again bringing its colourful and tuneful Gilbert and Sullivan offerings to the Hills.
On Sunday 21 May at 2pm, the Upwey Baptist Community Church will host this year’s performance, with proceeds supporting the local meals program provided by Foothills Community Care.
This year’s performance will see a double header; HMS Pinafore and Trail by Jury.
Dressed in period costumes, created by Helen Ebbsworthy, the 25 performers will provide a concert version of the Gilbert and Sullivan classic HMS Pinafore, with all the music, some of the dialogue and some narration to fill the gaps.
After interval, the period shifts to the roaring twenties, and the setting to a courtroom, where the beautiful Angelina is suing her rakish fiancé for leaving her at the altar, with hilarious results. This shorter offering was written by Gilbert and Sullivan without any dialogue. The music tells the whole story.
Enjoy this uplifting musical afternoon on May 21, and meet the cast afterwards, over a magnificent afternoon tea.
Advance tickets can be secured by contacting Diana Little on 0424617081. Enquiries about the choir can be directed to Margaret Tyson on 0417569471.
