The Jersey Gilbert and Sullivan Society
2016
Three concerts were put on in 2016 on the following occasions;
On Sunday 30th October, the Society put on a Tea and Cakes concert St Andrew's Church.
This was a great success with one attendee remarking "What a splendid afternoon it was with a full hall.
Superlative entertainment and the table groaning ( as they say) under the weight of the cakes.
Brought back a number of happy memories of the past shows and being out front....,
confirmed what I already knew about the great voices we have with the (Principal singers within the Society)"

On Saturday 2nd July, the Society put on a concert featuring both soloists and the main chorus at Ebenezer Methodist Church.
