LOpSoc & Showstoppers present: Carousel (Musical) external site

LOpSoc and Showstoppers collaborate for the first time to bring you Rodgers and Hammerstein's classic musical 'Carousel'!

 


Set in a New England coastal town at the end of the 19th century, the story revolves around carousel barker Billy Bigelow, whose romance with millworker Julie Jordan comes at the price of both their jobs. He attempts a robbery to provide for Julie and their unborn child; after it goes wrong, he is given a chance to make things right.

The Organisers

Light Opera Society

We are the Light Opera Society and have a long, established history, having performed light operas and operettas since 1972. Each year, LOpSoc presents at least two shows: these are often operettas written by Gilbert and Sullivan, or other musical works. The former of these is performed for a second time at the International G&S Festival in Harrogate every August. These British theatre classics are always comedic, extravaganzas. Anybody who wants to get involved, be in on stage or off, in either of our shows is very welcome! Our chorus is non-auditioned and we rehearse at 7pm every Tuesday, usually in Building 34/4013 (the large room on the right at the top of the staircase). Our members join from all different courses of the university and come from all different backgrounds, which provides the society with a wide variety of personalities along with a great range of talents. We are a very laid-back society: we thoroughly enjoy what we do and we have great fun in the process. So why not come along and try something new? Anyone and everyone is welcome to sign up, join our society and get on-stage! For more information, see our website at lopsoc.susu.org.
