The Anniversary continues

The Society were on stage twice during June, with concerts at both Dunfermline’s Alhambra Theatre and the Carnegie Hall:

A PDF of the programme for the two concerts is available at the link on the image. If you missed either of the concerts, we’re hoping to repeat some of the items at the Pitlochry Festival Theatre at a date to be announced in March 2011.

So your next opportunity to see our Company on stage will be when we return to Dunfermline’s Carnegie Hall with our 40th Anniversary production of The Mikado, which is to be 23–26 February 2010.

Happy 40th birthday!

As you will see from the Our history page, the Society was formed at a public meeting held in Dunfermline’s historic Abbot House on Wednesday 13 May 1970, which was also the anniversary of Sir Arthur Sullivan’s birth in 1842.

So we are now officially 40, which is why we are celebrating with two summer concerts, and producing The Mikado next year, as this was our very first show. Over the summer we’ll be adding suitable memories of our long and (at least fairly) illustrious history!

WELCOME TO OUR WEB SITE

The Dunfermline Gilbert and Sullivan Society is an amateur group aiming to foster and maintain a knowledge and appreciation of the works of W S Gilbert and Arthur Sullivan by the regular, public performance of their works (read more of our history here).

The Society is a registered charity: Scottish Charity Number SC030518.

Our main annual show is performed in the Carnegie Hall each February and is usually one of the Gilbert & Sullivan operettas. We also produce a Summer Concert held in late June each year.

NEW MEMBERS

Rehearsals for shows and concerts are every Wednesday at 7.30pm in the Whitefield Day Centre within Queen Margaret Hospital: see the Google map at this link. We will be starting rehearsals for our next main show on 18 August, with auditions on 22 August: please contact us for details.

And there is always the opportunity to become one of our Society “Friends” – they get a really good deal, as you will see from this form, which doubles as an application form.

KEEPING IN TOUCH

It’s always difficult to see at a glance when your favourite Society is performing, but Concert Diary have all our promotions on their web site, which is a useful place to look for other quality entertainment.
