Iolanthe Audition Results

following a very well attended audition, well done to all those who auditioned.

 

iolanthe - Spring 2012

We are pleased to confirm that our Spring 2012 production will be Iolanthe. With the Jubilee and Olympics taking place next year it will be a period of patriotic enthusiasm and so it seems fitting to present this fun-filled fairy tale (literally) set in one of our renowned national institutions - the House of Lords.

We are very pleased to advise that Lucy Seymour will be joining the MOS production team again as Director of Iolanthe, to join David Hazeldine as Music Director. Together they directed us in Once More With Feeling in 2010 and in Anything Goes a few years earlier.

 

SHOW WEEK:

show week starts with Band Call on Sunday afternoon, 27th May. Performances Wed 30th, Thur 31st May, Fri 1st and Sat 2nd June 2012. Wed - Fri 7.30, Sat 6pm.
