LEISURE: Sunday matinee of Top Hat cancelled by Yeovil Amateur Operatic Society due to snow

YEOVIL Amateur Operatic Society has cancelled its performance of the Top Hat musical on Sunday (March 18, 2018) due to the adverse weather conditions.

With snow falling again to make driving conditions difficult the decision has been taken to cancel the 2.30pm matinee show.

But with one week of the run having now been completed, people left disappointed by Sunday’s cancellation still have other opportunities to watch the fantastic Irving Berlin show.

The production will resume at the Octagon Theatre in Yeovil on Tuesday (March 20, 2018) at 7.30pm with nightly shows running again on Wednesday, March 21, 2018, through to Friday, March 23, 2018.

There will then be a 2.30pm matinee on Saturday (March 24, 2018) followed by a final performance later that evening at 7.30pm.

For more information about tickets please go to https://www.octagon-theatre.co.uk/whats-on/all-shows/yaos-top-hat/5346#schedules or call 01935-422884.

People with tickets for the planned Sunday show will now be able to exchange their tickets for another performance by calling the box office on 01935-422884 from 10am on Monday (March 19, 2018).LEISURE: Sunday matinee of Top Hat cancelled by Yeovil Amateur Operatic Society due to snow

An Octagon spokesman said: “If you have any further questions or problems please contact us on 01935-422884 or email octagontheatre@southsomerset.gov.uk .

“We will do our best to answer as quickly as possible, but call times may be longer than usual due to the high volumes of calls due to the weather.”

Top Hat opened last Tuesday (March 13, 2018) and the highly-talented cast has dazzled audiences who have converged on the Octagon for a bit of Hollywood glitz and glamour.

The musical tells the story of Broadway sensation Jerry Travers who dances his way across Europe to win the heart of society girl Dale Tremont.

An uplifting and hilarious romantic comedy celebrating 1930s song, style and romance, Top Hat dazzles with glorious, tap-dancing magic, beautiful ballroom dancing and a love story that will set the pulse racing.
