Director's Update - The Gondoliers
Thank you for your energy and hard work last night - excellent! We are unlikely to revisit the Act 1 Opening for a few weeks so keep trying to remember what we've done so far.
NEXT WEEK: Tessa's song - very straightforward. Then into Act 1 finale. Please revise the finale music thoroughly as we should be able to set a big chunk of this next week. Luiz and Don Alhambra will be needed from 8pm.
Please read on for Sunday's principals' rehearsal :

History
Oundle Gilbert and Sullivan Players was formed in 1958. Our first show was 'The Pirates of Penzance' performed in 1959 and we have been entertaining audiences every year since. For some entertaining videos and pictures from past shows, please visit our gallery below.
Performances
We produce two shows a year. Our Gilbert & Sullivan Production is at the end of February/beginning March when we perform one of the many famous comedy operettas
Our Summer concert in June when we perform a variety of songs loosely based around a theme (the 2016 theme was transport, the title Transports of Delight). The songs range from pop, jazz and humorous songs to songs from musicals, with no Gilbert & Sullivan songs at all.
Rehearsals
We rehearse once a week on Wednesdays at 7:30 p.m. and provide a warm welcome to all. Rehearsals for the main show start in late August / early September. Rehearsals for the Summer concert start immediately after the Spring show, usually in March.
