Ghosts History

Ghosts was founded in 1983 by Patsy Prescott, an immunologist at the Royal Surrey County Hospital, to perform Gilbert & Sullivan's HMS Pinafore, working our way through most of the G&S 'repertoire' and in 1989 becoming responsible for the annual hospital pantomimes and raising over £15,000 for various causes related to Guildford hospitals - hence our original name of Guildford Hospitals Theatre (GHosTs) - now renamed simply "Ghosts".

As if two shows a year weren't enough for us, we decided to do something 'serious' in 1991, and performed our first choral concert - John Stainer's Crucifixion. Our annual concerts are now as much a part of our programme as our staged performances.

Ghosts are also delighted to be the 'regular' choir for the Radio Lion Christmas carol service broadcasts. We have also provided the chorus for several professional productions staged by the London Opera Players as well as winning a number of NODA (National Operatic & Dramatic Association) awards for our musicals.

To see how different our challenges have become, why not take a look at our previous shows or simply email our Membership Secretary, Tim Sindall.
