Alton Operatic & Dramatic Society - by Jean Gebbett

If you go to Alton Assembly Rooms
Early March each year,
Or happen to be passing by
In June or November

You’ll hear such wonderful music
You’’ll see such wonderful sights
You’ll smile or shed  a tear
So visit them one night

In March you’ll see a musical
The whole thing will astound you
November play so very fine
With acting to enslave you

But June’s super variety show
Will perhaps suit you best
Songs, dances, sketches all aglow
With AODS’ very finest

What would Alton be
I often ask myself
Without this fabulous talent
So go and spoil yourself
