Musical Theatre Salisbury is a community theatre group in Salisbury, England. It was founded in 1908. In 2011, the company changed its name from Salisbury Amateur Operatic Society to better to reflect their major activity, which is to produce two fully staged and costumed musical theatre shows per year in Salisbury. Their repertoire varies from classic Broadway shows to contemporary musicals, as well as the Gilbert and Sullivan operas and occasional operettas.

Famous quotes containing the words musical and/or theatre:
“If we cannot sing of faith and triumph, we will sing our despair. We will be that kind of bird. There are day owls, and there are night owls, and each is beautiful and even musical while about its business.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“... the theatre demanded of its members stamina, good digestion, the ability to adjust, and a strong sense of humor. There was no discomfort an actor didn’t learn to endure. To survive, we had to be horses and we were.”
—Helen Hayes (1900–1993)
