The Cape Town Gilbert and Sullivan Society [1] is an amateur society founded in 1947, with the aim to foster interest in musical theatre, and the works of Sir William Schwenk Gilbert [2] and Sir Arthur Seymour Sullivan [3] ("G&S") in particular.

The Mayor of Cape Town at that time was appointed, ex officio, as the Honorary President of the Society, and all subsequent Mayors of Cape Town have held this position.

Aims and function

As an amateur society, productions are done entirely on a community theatre basis, that is, no performer is paid, and directors and specialist technicians are given honoraria only. Except for the annual donations which the Society makes to such enterprises as the music programme of the Amy Biel Foundation Trust, to the Cape Amateur Theatre Awards, and to the Cape Eisteddfod, any surplus income from productions is retained and put towards the costs of future productions.

The Society has produced at least one, and sometimes two operas, or other musical works, per year in and around Cape Town. For many years such performances took place in a range of venues, including the Labia Theatre, the Hofmeyr Theatre, and various Civic Centres. From 1983 onwards however, productions have been done at the Baxter Theatre or in the at the Nico Malan Theatre (later Artscape).

The Cape Town Gilbert and Sullivan Society has toured to the International Festival of Gilbert and Sullivan in Buxton, Derbyshire, England a number of times, and won international awards there.

In the society's diamond jubilee year (2007), they received a Molteno Gold Medal from the Cape Tercentenary Foundation for a lifetime of service to the performing arts in the Western Cape.
