December 4-6, 2009: Pantomime "Red Riding Hood": By Norman Robbins Theatre du Leman, Geneva
Come along and join us for GAOS’ 2009
pantomime Red Riding Hood. You may have
noticed that she is not “Little,” and that is
because this Red Riding Hood adventure
is anything but little! Help Red Riding
Hood and her friends Bo Peep and Boy
Blue rid Ferndale (the smallest town in the
kingdom) of the Big Bad Wolf by booing
and hissing at this monstrous baddy; save
Grandma Merry from the dastardly Sir
Jasper de Vyle, Squire of Ferndale, and
his hapless henchmen; and cheer on the
handsome prince and his faithful servant
Bobby Shaftoe as they make sure that
good triumphs over evil. In this traditional
British Pantomime the entire family can
enjoy the magic! Cheer on the action,
watch the dancing, sing the song-sheet
and join us in wishing Red Riding Hood and
her handsome prince a happy ending.
Director: Sue Lloyd
Assisted by: Phil Tuffs
Musical Director: Wolfgang Schutt

October 2008 - Under the direction of Andrew Close, the GAOS Choral Group performed Carl Orff's "Carmina Burana" with soloists and small orchestra, and the challenging 8-choir motet "Spem in Alium" by Thomas Tallis in the Eglise de Compesières. The church was full, the concert was much appreciated, and a good time was had by all!

The Geneva Amateur Operatic Society, now in its 37th
season, is the largest English-speaking amateur musical
society on the continent. With three to four major
stage productions each season, ranging from light
opera and musicals to Music Hall, Cabaret and English
Pantomime, along with several evenings of light classical
music and a choral group, there is plenty for all
tastes both on-stage and behind the scenes. In fact,
it's behind the scenes where much of the fun is to
be had. Just look at the pictures from our
production of the traditional Christmas pantomime Snow
White and the Seven Dwarfs.
Entre Shakespeare qui clamait "la musique est
l'aliment essentiel de l'amour" et Molière
qui se sentait "un coeur à aimer toute
la terre", il est certain que la guerre de cent
ans ne s'est pas jouée dans un théâtre.
Bienvenue donc à tous les amis francophones
que GAOS compte de plus
en plus nombreux sur scène, en coulisses et
parmi notre fidèle public. |
