Coming in 2027 - ‘The Sorcerer’
On the 150th anniversary of its first performance we are delighted to be bringing the magical G&S opera, ‘The Sorcerer’ to new audiences next Autumn 2027.
Auditions will be held for principal roles on Saturday 13 February at Boothtown Methodist Church in Halifax. While primarily for current members of the Savoyards, we welcome interest from experienced performers who are members of other local G&S societies or musical theatre groups. Use our contact page to get in touch if you are interested in being a part of the tour. Only those who can fully commit to all rehearsals and performances will be considered. .
