After being founded at the Putteridge Bury Teacher Training College in
1971, early G&S productions took place in the College Refectory
during the October half-term holidays. The Society's growing reputation
for high musical standards and witty productions meant it expanded
beyond a College Society, drawing its membership from across three
counties! Even when the Society moved its main productions to Luton
Library Theatre (now St Georges), we still performed summer concerts at
Putteridge Bury and rehearsed there until 1992. It was a great pleasure
to work in such a beautiful building surrounded by lovely grounds. Here
are some photos of ‘The Crowd’ from our 1978 Trial by Jury (performed at
Putteridge Bury) and our 1980 production of The Pirates of Penzance at
Luton Library Theatre.
