Rockdale Musical
Society is one of Australia's oldest Musical Society's, having been
established in 1939 after a meeting by local residents of Rockdale
hosted at the Rockdale Town Hall.
At its inception, the society's finances were "nil", but it didn't take
long for the monetary worries to be dissipated. After three
outastanding performances at the Kograh Masonic Hall, of the relatively
unknown and ambitous "Sunny" in October 1939, the public immediately
hailed the show and the society a huge success. This was
immediately followed up by the hilarious and also highly successful,
"Turned Up"
And so from these humble and enthusiastic beginings, Rockdale Musical
Society has grown to become one of the most respected names in local
amateur theatre. To this day RMS continues with firsts, such
as Jekyll & Hyde, Cats, The Producers, The Wedding Singer, and
once again an Australian Premiere, Miss Saigon.
The current structure sees Rockdale Musical Society put on two shows a
year at the Rockdale Town Hall. One in March and the second
in September. The society prides itself on ensuring that the
true meaning of Amateur (For the love of), is maintained, and that the
theatre experience of all its patrons is exceptional and truly
entertaining.
Rockdale Musical Society is always on the lookout for Performers,
Production Teams, Back
stage, Front of House, and even Costuming and Properties experts.
So stay tuned, and don't be afraid to come to one of our
Information/Orientation nights to learn how to get involved.
