In 2007 we celebrated our 70th
anniversary and also changed our name to TEPOS Music Box (from Thames
Operatics Society). Visit our "new shows" page for details
of our forthcoming show(s).
In 1937, the Society began rehearsals for its show "The Gondoliers", which was staged in 1938 at the Polytechnic Hall in Woolwich. Woolwich Polytechnic Operatic Society (as it was then) was born! During the war years it was difficult to produce a show, but the Society did manage to perform "The Mikado" in 1940, "Patience" in 1943, followed by "Iolanthe" in 1945. In 1946 when "Pirates of the Penzance" was performed, the show was seen by over 4,000 people! Obviously, Gilbert & Sullivan was as popular then as it is now. Because of our roots with G&S, we felt it appropriate to celebrate our Diamond Jubilee year in 1997 with a firm favourite, "Princess Ida". Lately, we have performed "Me and My Girl", "Carousel" and "The Baker's Wife". Use this link to see a list of our previous shows. We continue to support the work of the Bexley & Greenwich Cottage Hospice. Use this link to find out more. |
