Rehearsals

Rehearsals patterns have been evolving in recent years so may vary slightly from production to production.  The current pattern is 1 month of weekend music rehearsals,  1 month of weekend production rehearsals, followed by an intensive fortnight of Monday to Friday, 10:30 – 17:30.  Sitzprobe and Stage Rehearsals for the week leading up to opening night on Friday, during the day and evenings.  Not everyone will be called for every rehearsal and individual member’s NAs (“not available” dates) of which sufficient notice is given will be taken into account as far as practicable. Other rehearsals may be called as the need arises.

Performances

We stage two productions a year, in May and November, at Jacksons Lane Theatre. Principals are normally double cast.

Performances take place over a two week run, usually on the Friday and Saturday nights and Sunday afternoon of week one and on Tuesday to Friday evenings, Saturday matinee and evening and Sunday afternoon of week two.
