Reviews

Stage Whispers

"Production, performers, orchestra and audience alike benefit from the company’s splendid new home; a well kept secret, this beautiful theatre with its generous orchestra pit, cosy auditorium and spacious stage, is just a stone’s throw from North Sydney Railway Station and the harbour...The new stage also provides a larger ensemble than we’re accustomed to with this company, more space for a bit of welcome exuberance. There’s so much to enjoy about the principal performances." - Neil Litchfield
Sydney Arts Guide

"Directed by Elizabeth Lowrencev and under the graceful , inspired musical direction of maestro Rod Mounjed this is a production that vocally and musically delights and enchants...A most impressive and delightful production full of British patriotism and rollicking enjoyment that upholds the stirring tradition of the British (and Australian ) navy." Lynne Lancaster

Weekend Notes

"Produced by Gilbert & Sullivan Opera Sydney (formally known as the Savoy Arts Company), the well-known work is successfully brought to the stage by a strong ensemble within the company...The accompaniment of a live orchestra was wonderful, as it truly elevated the quality of the show and sounded magnificent in the theatre." - Katherine Thomas
What's on Sydney

"The ship that is HMS Pinafore sailed into Sydney, with a glorious set and stunning costumes, in a very traditional presentation of this classic. It's important to note that no microphones were used, and we heard every word." - Ben Oxley

About Us

The Savoy Arts Company Incorporated has been producing shows since 1985, specialising in the operettas of William Gilbert and Arthur Sullivan. To better reflect its primary artistic objective, commencing from 2014, the company will be performing as Gilbert & Sullivan Opera Sydney. Our performing group has provided excellent training in all aspects of stagecraft for performers who have made a career in opera and musical theatre. The Ensemble style of our productions not only provides the chorus with experience in singing with an orchestra, but also provides ample opportunity to learn and develop skills in characterisation and stagecraft.
