Wellington Comic Opera - Nov'22 Concert Programme

Indu from Woodridge

Since 1998 the Society has increasingly added non-G&S works to its repertoire, prompting the addition of ‘Light Opera’ to the Society’s name and, more recently, the adoption of the trading name Wellington Comic Opera (WCO). This change heralded the intent to supplement the more popular Savoy Operas with musicals, with an emphasis on light-hearted, tuneful and amusing shows penned by such greats as Gershwin, Berlin, Kern, Bart, Porter, Bock & Harnick, Rodgers & Hart, Rodgers & Hammerstein, and Lerner & Loewe. This concert features, along with excerpts from the two G&S favourites HMS Pinafore and The Gondoliers, selections from the Lionel Bart classic Oliver! as well as Jerome Kern’s Show Boat and Cole Porter’s High Society and Kiss Me Kate. After our thrice-postponed Pirates of Penzance scheduled for May 2023, we hope to mount a new show, written by our creative team of Michael Vinten and Alison Hodge, that will pay homage to early musical theatre within a New Zealand context.
