Robin Ozog
Robin was born and bred in Dunfermline and is a founder member of the Dunfermline Gilbert and Sullivan Society having joined straight from school. Over the years he has played all the major tenor and romantic lead roles in G&S (many several times over!) and is currently enjoying playing the baritone and comic roles without having to fret (as tenors do) about a B flat in an Act II Finale!! He is still a romantic at heart though! Outwith Gilbert and Sullivan, Robin has performed in many Societies in Fife, Lothian, Forth Valley and Tayside. He has played Danilo in Merry Widow, Alfred and Falke in Pink Champagne, Eisenstein in Die Fledermaus, Sir Walter Raleigh in Merrie England, Philippe in The New Moon, Brazil, Raoul and Robert in La Vie Parisienne, Pluto in Orpheus in the Underworld, Monsieur de Tavel Rose in Not in front of the waiter, Hillary in Sunday Excursion, Bastien in Le Farfadet, Stenio in Gandolfo and Turidou in Cavalleria Rusticana. Concert performances are far too numerous to list but Robin reckons that well over £25,000 must have been raised for various charities by his and others efforts in this arena. He has performed many times in the Edinburgh Festival Fringe and has been involved in productions with Waverley Care in the Edinburgh Festival Theatre. Robin greatly enjoys singing Burns songs and also finding, learning and performing airs and ballads from the days before television when people gathered together to entertain themselves with music and song. He particularly enjoys singing the songs of the cruise ship crooners of that era who today would fit nicely into Friday Night is Music Night on Radio 2! Latterly Robin has turned his hand to directing and having thrice directed Dunfermline G&S he recently directed Kirkcaldy Gilbert and Sullivan Society’s Mikado, having directed them the previous year in a triple bill of The Zoo, Trial By Jury and Cox & Box. Robin calculated last year that if he took all the nights he had performed in a show and strung them together then he would have been continuously on stage for 14 months! He says he has had a fantastic life on the amateur stage and that if he didn't sing life would be just too hard - “it’s my stress buster and it keeps me sane!” Married with three grown-up (but still dependent!!) children, Robin is currently General Manager of Private Catering for Prestige Scotland, so, if you want a wedding in a marquee in your back garden, Robin’s your man!!!
