The story of Kismet (a Turkish word, meaning destiny) is a musical adapted from a 1911 play. The play, first performed at the Garrick Theatre in London was later adapted for a musical performance by Edwin Lester, Director of the Los Angeles Civic Light Opera.
Bless The Bride debuted on the West End in 1947. It debuted at the Adelphi Theatre and initially ran for three years and over 800 performances. It was the third of five musicals written by A.P. Herbert and scored by Vivian Ellis.
Truro Amateur Operatic & Dramatic Society (TOADS) were one of the most prolific theatrical users of City Hall. Hiring the space on an annual basis over many years, the society would put on a new play or musical every year. Sets would be hired in or built in part for the production. Costumes were lovingly made by the families of performers and sometimes come as part of the set hire. TOADS now has its home at its very own Redannick Theatre, Truro, where the society continue to perform for the loyal local community on a regular basis.

Carousel was the second musical produced by Rogers & Hammerstein. Following the success of their first musical, Oklahoma! In 1943, Carousel followed quickly on its heels, opening on Broadway in 1945 (its West End debut took place in 1950). Mavis Ward, the producer of TOADS version stated ‘Mr Hammerstein has a strong moral truth to expound, and pays his audience the compliment of supposing that they are able and willing to think and feel as deeply as he.’
Those prepared to look beneath the surface, may well be rewarded to find in Carousel, the most thoughtfully moral musical of the century’. TOADS production of Carousel was performed at City Hall between November 10th-15th 1958. Production and Chreography was by Mavis Ward, Musical Director was by G. Trehane Collins, Ballet Mistress Vera Gatley and Chorus Mistress, Gladys Hiley.
