Over the past 40 years the Savoy Singers have worked their way through performing a wide range of musicals, including all the operettas of Gilbert & Sullivan.
This year, in October we are venturing into new territory when we shall be putting on a Revue based on the prolific musical output of the American pair, Richard Rogers and Oscar Hammerstein II.
This revue will follow their early beginnings when they were working with other writers and composers such as Lorenz Hart and Sigmund Romberg. Some of the numbers from the 1920s include ‘Blue Moon’ and ‘Manhattan’ and then, coming to more recent times, when they were collaborating together, with such blockbuster musicals as ‘Carousel’, ‘Oklahoma!’, ‘South Pacific’ and ‘The Sound of Music’
This is a real treasure of songs which you will be able to enjoy at Camberley Theatre from Friday 7th to Sunday 9th October. Look out for more details.
During the summer months rehearsals will continue at Heatherside Community Centre on Wednesdays at 8pm and the Society would particularly like to invite any tenor or bass voice singers along. For more information contact Ann and Bob Cousins on 01276 23130
