AMOS member Jez Jameson took a starring role this weekend - as Christ in the Andover Passion Play.
Written and adapted by Peter Hutley MBE, the Passion Play graphically recreated the scenes of the crucifixion, starting with the walk of witness from the Baptist Church then along Junction Road, through the leisure centre and into the town centre, where the action took place between the time ring and the Guildhall. The production was produced by Sharon O’Leary, who assembled a cast of 65 from members of the various local communities, helped by Andover Churches Together with the support of Test Valley Borough Council.

I simply have to tell you all about the wonderful singing rehearsal we had last night...
As my character doesn't appear until the end of the first act, I haven't been to many full chorus rehearsals, but last night we had singing practice for the whole cast and it was brilliant!
I thoroughly enjoyed it - singing four part harmony with a room full of people and a piano is just fantastic fun! The best part though, was listening to our male chorus, which for this production is made up of, wait for it.... nine men!!! Boosted in numbers by new members Scott Goodair, Rob Talbot and Jason Davenhill, and with the return of John Parker, the mens chorus sounded just lovely.

An am dram society can never have too many men though, so if you or anyone you know might like to join us - get in touch!
