More Magic of The Musicals

Helen first joined Sale G&S in 2003 for our International Gilbert & Sullivan Festival production of The Gondoliers at Buxton Opera House. Since then, she has become our Principal Soprano and has taken the lead role in most of the operas. She also has a very strong mezzo soprano voice and has performed many of these roles too! She has also agreed to become our Director since our move to The Lowry Studio in recent years and her innovative and enjoyable productions are a joy to take part in.

Janice joined Sale G&S in 1988 for a production of The Yeomen of the Guard as a member of the chorus, and the only job she hasn’t done in the intervening years since is Chairman! She loves Sullivan’s beautiful melodies and Gilbert’s witty words and enjoys the whole collaborative effort as the group brings a show from page to stage.

We have been performing at Z-Arts theatre in Manchester since 2023. Recent shows include The Gondoliers (shown here) and The Mikado. Our productions are always colourful and enthusiastic.

Tony fell in love with G&S whilst at school. He discovered Sale G&S society in 1985, and has been a member ever since. His first role with the society was the ‘echo’ in Trial by jury, his first principal role was as Samuel in Pirates and he has played many other roles during that time. His most important role to date has been as society chairman, a role he has held for just over 20 years. He’s beginning to think no one else wants the job! Tony thoroughly enjoys appearing in the G&S operas, and intends to carry on doing so for many years to come.
