The nationally acclaimed British Police Symphony Orchestra (BPSO) will perform in Shrewsbury on Saturday (April 13th)for the first time in almost 20 years in aid of the Mayor of Shrewsbury’s charities supporting Hope House and Cystic Fibrosis.
Mayor Keith Roberts is hoping that the people of Shrewsbury will get behind the charity event to hear memorable symphony classics from one of the best amateur orchestras in the UK.
The popular national police orchestra, due to celebrate its 25th anniversary, is sponsored by Shropshire driver training organisation, the TTC Group.
Musicians are from police forces across the country who are serving or retired officers, police staff or friends and family.
On April 13 at 7.30pm at the Theatre Severn, the BPSO will perform music from Ravel, Leonard Bernstein and Lloyd Webber including Don’t Cry For Me Argentina, The Raiders of the Lost Ark and music from Les Miserables.
Shropshire Girls Choir will also share the stage to perform songs from several popular West End shows including Les Miserables, Sister Act and Chitty Chitty Bang Bang.
“We are very lucky to get such an acclaimed national orchestra to perform for us at the Theatre Severn in aid of such deserving charities and the tickets are only £15,” said Mayor Roberts.
“I really want the people of Shropshire to come and enjoy the evening which starts at 7.30pm and give us their support. You can buy tickets from the Theatre Severn Box Office.”
