WLOS were increbly excited and proud to be one of the first UK AmDram societies to bring this soaring, emotional story of the 9/11 response of the citizens of Gander, Newfoundland to the 38 planeloads of confused, distressed air passenges whose flights were diverted in the immediate aftermath.

We stepped back in time to the golden era of Broadway for Stephen Sondheims’ "Follies" in May. With its dazzling choreography, unforgettable music, and a heartwarming story that explores the complexities of love, regret, and nostalgia, this classic musical transported audiences to a world filled with glamour, dreams, and bittersweet memories.

WLOS presented our Little Show of Horrors this Halloween! Don’t let the word ‘little’ fool you…there was nothing small about this ‘scream’ of a show that featured the ‘creepy crooners’, ‘horrifying howlers’ and ‘rock-y horror’ hits from some of the best loved (and slightly scary) musicals.
