Astwood Bank Operatic Society
We were proud to present Gilbert & Sullivans H.M.S Pinafore.
The story of Josephine, the daughter of Captain Corcoran, who falls for lowly sailor Ralph Rackstraw. However, she’s torn between her true love, and her father’s desire for her to marry Sir Joseph Porter, the First Lord of the Admiralty.
This was the first time that Astwood Bank Operatic Society have played at The Norbury Theatre - Droitwich.
