We are an enthusiastic group of amateur performers dedicated primarily to performing the works of W.S. Gilbert and A.S. Sullivan.

In 2026 we are looking forward to performing "The Gondoliers".

Two happy-go-lucky Venetian gondoliers, Marco and Giuseppe, discover that one of them is heir to the throne of a distant kingdom. True to their (adopted) republican roots, they set off together to rule in an idealistic if somewhat chaotic style…

Expect to be transported to Venice (water is not guaranteed) for a joyful production packed with some of Gilbert & Sullivan's most-loved songs.

We are always looking for new members, so if you fancy exercising the vocal chords and enjoy four-part singing, why not come along to St. Andrew’s Community Hall, Denison Street, Batley WF17 7NU, on Wednesday evenings at 7.30 pm . See the Members Area for more details.

If you don’t want to make a weekly commitment, there are other opportunities to help backstage and front of house around the show time:

  • Set design and construction
  • Scenery painting
  • Collating and organising stage properties
  • Wardrobe and Make-up
  • Front of House – selling programmes, raffle tickets
