Join us for a celebration of musical theatre at this Come & Sing event under the baton of maestro Hannah Long as we sing Gilbert & Sullivan’s The Gondoliers. All participants are very welcome and this year we continue after last year’s success to offer 3 optional chorus rehearsal dates, to enable those not familiar with the piece, or maybe don’t read music, to participate.

On Saturday 4th July, a full cast rehearsal will be held 2pm – 5.30pm followed by a ticketed evening performance at 7.30pm.

Whether you would like to bring your musical talents to bear by participating or prefer to sit back with a drink and enjoy the thrills and spills of an impromptu concert performance, join us at Woodside Hall to celebrate the talents of our most famous homespun musical duo, Gilbert & Sullivan, with one of the earliest established musical theatre groups in the UK.

Participation fee is £25 for members which includes the optional chorus rehearsals (dates below).

If you are not a current member of Hitchin Thespians, you can either choose to attend the day plus all three chorus rehearsals leading up to the event (dates below) for £40 or just the Come & Sing day on 4th July for £25.

Audience tickets are £7.50.

Tuesday 16th June rehearsal (optional) at 7.30pm
