The Jury’s Out will be on the road …

Both the team and our audience much enjoyed The Jury’s Out and, when we met to view the video, someone had the idea that we should send a copy to the Buxton G&S Festival organisers, and offer our production as part of the 2026 Festival. And then we waited … until last Autumn we got the offer to perform at St John’s Church, Buxton, at 2:30pm on Wednesday 5 August as part of the 32nd International Gilbert & Sullivan Festival!

Despite this being peak holiday period, Linda managed to commit much the same team as for the première to travel to Buxton, and has since been working on Plan A/Plan B/Plan C as other obstacles are gradually overcome. We can’t take the set or the orchestra, but the essentials of the production remain the same, and we’re looking forward to appearing.

Do come and support us if you fancy a holiday in England’s lovely Peak District – you can book at this link – but, if that’s too much of an ask, you can see the team at Limekilns on 17/18 July. Details at this link.

The story so far is told in “The Road to Buxton – Part 1” on pp26–27 of the June issue of the NODA Scotland magazine.  We look forward to writing Part 2!
