The Edinburgh University Savoy Opera Group (EUSOG) was formed in 1961 and is one of a kind in Edinburgh. Striving to find the best talent both onstage and behind the scenes, we have produced many successful performances of the celebrated Gilbert and Sullivan Operettas.
We also have a history in contemporary and classic musicals which we perform in November and for the Edinburgh Fringe. We have received stellar reviews for our performances, including 'Avenue Q' , 'The Addams Family', 'Company', 'Oliver!', 'The Drowsy Chaperone', 'The Producers', 'Sweet Charity' and most recently our 5-star reviewed November production of "Into the Woods".
Whilst in November we normally put on a full length contemporary musical like the ones above, this year we decided to take our production online, allowing people to get back into the joys of theatre from the comfort of their home! Self-tape submissions for our original, digital musical "Click To Connect" are open September 15th-22nd, with rehearsals taking place through semester 1 and a recorded performance released towards the end of 2020. To learn more about the show why not head to the event page or get in touch with the committee!
We also took to an online performance in lieu of our normal Fringe production this year, and so please enjoy our performance of the song Five Forever from 'Little Women', with thanks to the production team and our tech advisors for putting it all together!
EUSOG is run entirely by students and gives members a chance to be involved in all aspect of the shows, from tech and stage design or management to performance on stage or in the band, costumes and make-up, directing or producing.
