About...

CLOGS Musical Theatre (formerly the Chippenham Light Opera Group) has been performing shows and concerts since 1979, striving to achieve the highest possible standard for each of our performances. From our first inaugural concert, we have endeavoured to bring the very best of musical theatre to the Chippenham area using the talents of local performers, musicians, technicians and backstage crew.

The Society produces at least one major musical show in early spring each year and also runs a series of fundraising concerts in the early summer. Our fundraising performances aim to raise money for the group and funds for local charities.

Staging our annual productions requires both performing skills plus the input of a team of people who give freely of their time to make our productions a success. We are very pleased to welcome new members who are interested in either performing or helping out backstage; this can range from building scenery, helping with costumes, sound and lighting to being part of the artistic direction team or working on the committee.

Membership of our junior section ‘The Clogettes' is available for children from the ages of 8 to 16. Over 16s and adults are welcome to join the main Society. Rehearsals are normally on Thursday evenings at St Peter’s Parish Church in Chippenham with Tuesday rehearsals nearer to the production dates and for principals/soloists rehearsals.

We are a friendly group who are always keen to welcome new members. We hope that you will decide to join and take part in or assist with forthcoming productions or concerts. Further details can be obtained by contacting us using our contact page.
