Bishop’s Stortford Musical Theatre Company ended their pandemic-imposed, two-year absence from the South Mill Arts stage with a flash, a bang and a wallop.

This cabaret-style evening was conceived as a gentle welcome back after the long silence due to the Covid Pandemic. It developed into a full-blown spectacular of 24 musical numbers. Well, what a welcome back it turned out to be! The cast and crew, eager to rediscover the joys of musical theatre, worked extremely hard to deliver something that the audience, equally eager, could enjoy, and the result was an evening of mixed emotions – from great joy to deep poignancy
