Jorvik Gilbert and Sullivan Company

About us

Welcome to the website of the Jorvik Gilbert and Sullivan Company, an inclusive theatre company solely dedicated to performing the 'Savoy Operas' of William Gilbert and Arthur Sullivan in the York area.

As an amateur company, we welcome members of all ages and abilities, and pride ourselves on being fully inclusive to everyone. We will not hold auditions for chorus members as we believe anyone who wants to turn up and sing should be able to! Whether you've never sung G&S music before or you're a G&S addict we would love you to come and join us.

Please use the links at the top of the page to find out more about us. If you would like more information or would like to join the company, please get in touch.

Staged productions

Jorvik Gilbert and Sullivan Company were delighted to perform their first fully-staged show, Patience in the Joseph Rowntree Theatre, York. Please see the Patience 2009 page for more details about this production, or read Martin Dreyer's review of Patience in the York Press.

Our next staged production will be The Mikado, 15th - 18th September 2010, in the Joseph Rowntree Theatre. More details will follow shortly.

Concerts

Jorvik Gilbert and Sullivan Company regularly performs concerts in the York area. Since its formation, the Company has sung several concerts of A Gilbert and Sullivan Selection containing popular tunes from the G&S operettas. Our concert performances of Iolanthe and The Sorcerer were also well received. Aside from performances open to the public, Jorvik Gilbert and Sullivan Company also perform shorter concerts in residential homes in the area, and recently sang for a Golden Wedding Anniversary Celebration in Poppleton.
