Concerts
The Society also regularly performs a series of concerts at different venues. These often have a theme of classic musicals but others have been performed with a more specific theme (e.g. the music of Disney).
These concerts normally take place half way between shows and allow the group to spend 6 months of the year working on their vocal abilities. Many of these performances are privately booked by local church groups, but some are available to the general public.
Recent concerts have included:
- 2010 - Something Wicked This Way Comes
- 2009 - The Wish List
- 2005 - The Best of British Musicals
- 2004 - Songs We Love To Sing
- 2003 - Disney Spectacular
- 2002 - Modern Musicals: The Best Volume Ever
- 2001 - Songs Of the Century

Famous quotes containing the word concerts:
“The concerts you enjoy together
Neighbors you annoy together
Children you destroy together
That make marriage a joy”
—Stephen Sondheim (b. 1930)
“If you love music, hear it; go to operas, concerts and pay fiddlers to play to you; but I insist on your neither piping nor fiddling yourself. It puts a gentleman in a very frivolous, contemptible light.... Few things would mortify me more than to see you bearing a part in a concert, with a fiddle under your chin, or a pipe in your mouth.”
—Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
