‘The Wandering Minstrels’ (www.wanderingminstrels.org.uk) will stage ‘THE WORLD OF GILBERT AND SULLIVAN’ at St. Mary’s Church, Potton on Saturday 19th October at 7.30pm. They will sing, act and dance their way through many of the Gilbert and Sullivan shows – ‘HMS Pinafore’, ‘The Mikado’, ‘The Gondoliers’, ‘Trial by Jury’, ‘The Sorcerer’, ‘Ruddigore’ and ‘Princess Ida’. Artistes taking part in this concert are Alexandra Ferrari, Emma Stratton, Charles Mills, Stephen Godward and Tim Hurst-Brown, with Peter Hewitt at the piano.
Tickets are £10 (U16s free) and are available from Cameron’s Newsagents and also Tysoe’s Hardware Store in the the town square; from David Tall on 01767 261713; or at the door. Refreshments will be served in the interval.
The concert is bound to be extremely popular, so members of the public are advised to purchase tickets early in order to avoid disappointment. This concert of Savoy classics, presented in period costume and performed in traditional style, combines the acerbic wit of W. S. Gilbert and the enchanting music of Sir Arthur Sullivan.
It is the company’s first visit to Potton – don’t miss what promises to be a hugely enjoyable evening!
