Trial By Jury and The Zoo – 16th and 17th March 2018
This year, the Society is delighted to be able to invite you to Sandal Methodist Church, Barnsley Road, Wakefield, to see two shows, the first by Gilbert and Sullivan and the other with music by Arthur Sullivan but lyrics by B. C. Stephenson. They were both written around the same time i.e. 1875 so the music of Sullivan can be compared between the two operas.
The cast for the shows is as follows
THE ZOO
Laetitia Grinder Liz Blount
Eliza Smith Valerie Green
Aesculapius Carboy Ian Stewart
Thomas Brown David Parker
Mr. Grinder Jonathan Spry
TRIAL BY JURY
The Defendant Gordon Fawcett
The Plaintiff Maggie Lowe
The Judge Bobbie Greatorex
The Usher David Parker
The Counsel Jane Fawcett
First Bridesmaid Pauline Hepkin
Bridesmaids Liz Zserdicky, Liz Blount, Suzanne Keighley
If you wish to buy tickets for these shows, they are £8, and will be on sale soon from Tony Johnson on 07759 413289 or email Tony on tony8j@talktalk.net.
