Take a pair of sparkling eyes

This year’s Gilbert and Sullivan Society show, in aid of the charity Caritas Es, will be the comic operetta ‘The Gondoliers’.

The Stage Director, Trevor King, and the Musical Director, Cyril Willoughby have worked hard to ensure this will be a remarkable show full of colour, dance and music.

The show will take place at Casa de Cultura, Guardamar on 24th, 25th and 26th March. Tickets for the show cost 10 Euros and are available now from: Bargain Books, Torrevieja, The Card Shop, Ciudad Quesada, The Post Box Dona Pepa, Casa De Cultura, Guardamar, Bar Mediterraneo, Guardamar, or Telephone 966198396 or Email dfarrer1@terra.es.

For the benefit of my Spanish readers, Gilbert and Sullivan operettas were and still are very popular light entertainment in Britain. I suppose you could liken them to zarzuela. If your command of English is not good (and even possibly if it is!), you would find the dialogue hard to follow.
