MELTHAM Parish Church Gilbert and Sullivan Society’s spring show is Sound Of The Sea with nautical songs, sea shanties, monologues and poems.

It will feature songs from HMS Pinafore, Pirates and Ruddigore plus solos and duets.

The show starts tonight, Friday, and runs tomorrow, Saturday, in the parish church hall on Greens End Road. Tickets are available from The Flower Box in the Market Place, Meltham, phone 850771 or 349037. They cost £7 for adults and £4 for children under 16 and include tea and coffee.

Next year the society will celebrate its 50th anniversary and hopes to give a concert version of HMS Pinafore.
