🎭 We are delighted to be supporting the The Spirit Of Milborne Port Fete on Saturday 13th June!

We're looking forward to meeting members of our community, sharing more about the work we do, and showcasing the opportunities that light opera and musical theatre bring to people of all ages and experience levels.

Whether you've always wanted to tread the boards, sing with a group, help backstage, or simply find out more about what we do, we'd love to chat with you. We are always keen to welcome new members and volunteers to our friendly and supportive society.

The continued success of MPO Musical Theatre relies on the enthusiasm, support and involvement of our community, and we'd love to hear your ideas and discuss how you can help us continue bringing great entertainment to Milborne Port.

👋 Come and say hello – we look forward to seeing you!

Betty Blue Eyes, you've been
PORKING BRILLIANT! 🐷🇬🇧🎭

From everyone involved in Betty Blue Eyes, our wonderful cast, production team, audience, thank you to all of you!
Thank you for supporting this incredible show 🐷✨️🎭

We're going to miss Shepardsford, perhaps not everyone 🤫 but especially the star of the show, our adorable and unforgettable Betty 🐷❤️
I hear rumours she may be joining Neil Harrison-Shaw's pigs on the Harrison-Shaw farm and hopefully there are plenty of ginger nuts!
We love you Betty!

Thank you so much for sharing and your kind words. Thanks for your support and glad Jane enjoyed the show 🐷✨️

One of the local groups we are able to support last year was MPO Musical Theatre. We were really happy to be able to help fund this village group to help with their production costs.

Last night SOMP’s Jane took her daughters to watch their current show at the village hall and their review is in:

“5 stars to all the cast for a great show…but of course Betty stole the show! She made us all laugh. We would recommend going to see this.”

We see there’s still some tickets left for tomorrow night, be quick! 🐷

“ We attended last night's production and would like you to pass on our congratulations to all the team involved. From the opening scene you could well imagine being in the West End. The costumes were in the period, the accents were superb and not overdone at all, and the acting was a joy to watch. What a well rehearsed show this was - everyone knew exactly where they should be. I can't finish without mentioning Betty - she was wonderful and just highlights how many talented people you have in the society”.

Thank you so much to this kind audience member for allowing us to share your wonderful review ✨️
