M- Drama, Opera and Musicals

What it is: In contrast to last year’s serious course on Music Drama, this year’s programme will present lighter musicals ranging from Offenbach’s wacky parody of the Orpheus legend to Sondheim’s modern take on fairy tales Into the Woods. On the way we will enjoy a range of cheerful musicals by Franz Lehar, Gilbert and Sullivan, Cole Porter, Irving Berlin, Rogers and Hammerstein, Lerner and Lowe, Lionel Bart, Michel Legrand, Sandy Wilson, and Andrew Lloyd Webber amongst others, along with a little background on their creations.

When it is: 2.00 - 4.15 pm, fortnightly on Mondays

Where it is: Leader's home, bus stop nearby

Cost: nil
