Our Historical Collections Committee was approached by the Bach Elgar Choir for assistance with the loan of some historical uniform items for use in The Trial of Gilbert and Sullivan. We were happy to help but were surprised and gratified to receive an invitation to view the production. We watched the costumes with critical eyes and they passed inspection. Despite knowing all the words to HMS PINAFORE, we refrained from singing along. It was great fun and left us wanting more at the end. Many thanks to Alex Cann and Tabitha DeBruin.
