Rehearsals are hotting up for theatre show
Strictly Musicals 3
Darlington Hippodrome
Wednesday 22 April - Saturday 2 May 2020
Cast members of Strictly Musicals 3 - the latest offering from
Darlington Operatic Society (DarlingtonOS) - are being put thorough their paces
as musical numbers within the show start to take shape.
Strictly Musicals 3 is the third offering of a series of 'songs from the
shows' style productions by DarlingtonOS, the first being back in 2013.
In this third edition audiences will be entertained with songs from
classic shows such as The King and I, Mack & Mabel and Chicago alongside
extracts from modern-day favourites such as Dear Evan Hansen, Hamilton and The
Bodyguard. There will also be examples from some lesser-known shows such as
Something Rotten, Bonnie & Clyde and Songs for a New World.
Julian Cound from DarlingtonOS said "This is one of the most exciting
stages of the rehearsal period when we see the imagination of our director /
choreographer Joanne Hand come to life as she pieces together her amazing,
original choreography to go with the stunning vocals the company have been
learning under the musical direction of Steven Hood. Putting a concert style
production together is so much more difficult than working on a book show. From
a blank piece of paper the production team have to create 2 hours of musical
magic that offers something for everyone and with Strictly Musicals 3 I can
guarantee audiences will not be disappointed."
Strictly Musicals 3 has a cast of 52 local, talented amateur performers
who will be working flat out over the next 9 weeks to ensure the show is ready
for opening night on Wednesday 22 April at Darlington Hippodrome.
Julian concluded "there is a massive appetite for musical theatre
here in the North East and Strictly Musicals brings the best of the best
together for two hours of magic. If you are a fan of musicals then you will
simply love Strictly Musicals 3."
