IOLANTHE is marking a return to Worcester's Swan Theatre for the city's Gilbert and Sullivan Society.

"This will be a traditional production and with a full orchestra, a cast of about 50, colourful costumes and excellent choreography, we can promise an evening of first class entertainment," said spokeswoman Mary Hancock. It runs from September 20 to 24, with a Saturday matinee, and there are special children's deals on tickets.

Mrs Hancock added: "The society is looking forward to this new venture and are hoping that audiences who have enjoyed our productions at Malvern Festival Theatre and other local venues, together with, hopefully, many new patrons, will come and enjoy a super show."
