Ipswich Scout and Guide Gang Show, now in it's 85th year
Once again local members of Scouting and Guiding will be performing their annual ‘Gang Show’
Celebrating 85 years, the show has entertained audiences throughout that timeBased on an idea by Ralph Reader a leading west end choreographer, the show, with the help of a talented production team, has evolved into the modern, fast paced, and fun variety showThe sixty five strong cast is drawn from members of local Scout and Guide groups who, along with volunteer leaders, rehearse from November until EasterBehind the scenes, there are many more people, the scenery and props are made by a team of adults and all the costumes are sewn by a small groupWe have a very experienced lighting and sound team and they, along with a brilliant group of musicians ensure that the show is of a high standard
So, what is a Gang Show? Already mentioned it is based on an idea by Ralph Reader and is a variety show suitable for all the familyYou can watch excerpts from last year’s show at www.ipswichgangshow.org.uk on the gallery tabThere is no theme running through the show instead it is a series of song and dance items, comedy numbers and good all-round entertainmentListen out this year for songs by Abba and Ed Sheeran, be impressed by the dancing of the girls ( who are not part of a dance group just members of Guiding and Scouting) and do look out for Robin Hood and his group of ‘men in tights’If you haven’t watched a Gang Show for a number of years you will be amazed at the changes that have taken place
