The society was formed in 1959, the first meeting taking place at St Johns Hall, Wright Street, Southport on February 28th and the society has gone from strength to strength ever since. We celebrated our 60th anniversary in 2019!
You may know the society as the Birkdale Orpheus Society, more recently we adopted the modern name of BOS Musical Theatre Company.
We stage two operatic musicals productions a year, in May and October. Our members range from children through to grandparents and include several generations of the same family.
Over the years BOS has produced a variety of shows catering for all tastes from traditional blockbusters to the modern day musical. We pride ourselves on our high standards and continually strive for excellence.
Aside from our musical productions our concert party regularly perform for the community and charitable organisations. We have an active social membership and are well known for our friendly and fun approach.
The society is affiliated to the National Operatic and Dramatic Association (NODA). We are extremely proud to have won a number of awards over the last few years.
