In 2013 we will be celebrating 50 years since our company was founded. Originally known as Andover Operatic Society, the group has been known by a few names over the years, but one thing is certain, whatever name it is known by, Andover Musical Theatre Company are an important part of the cultural landscape in Andover. Although we now prefer to perform the modern productions with recent shows including a number of diverse productions such as Thoroughly Modern Millie, Jekyll & Hyde, Scrooge and The Likes of Us, to celebrate our 50th Anniversary, we would like to pay homage to our operatic history and have chosen to perform the Gilbert & Sullivan classic 'The Pirates of Penzance' in November 2013 to mark the occasion. More information will be coming soon! Local printing company, Advent Colour, have confirmed they will be sponsoring our production of Jekyll & Hyde. Our relationship started with Advent back in 2009 when they became a sponsor of our production of Scrooge, and they have continued to support us ever since, providing all of the printed materials we use to promote our shows. We are really pleased that Advent have agreed to continue with their support as without the help from local businesses our charity would not survive and thrive as well as it has done over the last few years.

Will has also enjoyed a successful acting career, which saw him appear alongside Dame Judi Dench in the film Mrs Henderson Presents, and it is the combination of these talents which has led him to star in Cabaret. Michelle famously beat a host of Hollywood names to play the title role in the cult US NBC TV show The Bionic Woman. Since then she has appeared in popular television dramas including Doctor Who, Merlin and Jekyll and contemporary films including 4,3,2,1.
