The Jersey Gilbert and Sullivan Society

The Jersey Gilbert and Sullivan Society was founded in 1980 and has as its principal aim the furtherance of the enjoyment of the works of W. S. Gilbert and Arthur Sullivan. Every year, in May, the Society puts on a full production of one of the operas. Forthcoming events can be seen here. Over the years we have performed in one manner or another all the operas.

Although the main emphasis of the Society is to perform and promote Gilbert and Sullivan operettas, the Committee is at liberty to authorise performances of other composers and librettists.

The May production is not all we do, however. Over the last few years, we have put on concerts of our own; taken part in the Jersey Eisteddfod; and performed by invitation at various events. And, away from the music and dancing, we hold a summer barbecue each year, the main event of our social calendar.
