50TH ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION
​LOCATON TBA

In 1967 Miranda Musical Society was formed with the idea of presenting musicals to suit the people belonging to the society while welcoming new members. The atmosphere was to be that of a large happy family with many social events to be enjoyed by all.

Using draft constitutions of other societies and trying to improve these where possible Laurel Gee, Alan Mundy and George Rixon drew up a constitution, accepted unanimously by the members. Miranda Musical Society was born. The Miranda School of Arts donated a starting capital of $80.

The inaugural management committee of Miranda Musical Society was elected:
President - George Rixon
Secretary - Laurel Gee
Treasurer - Shirley Oberg
Publicity - Bernard Broughton
Social Secretary - Darryl Francis
Members representatives - Sandra Cook and Don Loveday

Shows were staged at Port Hacking High School auditorium at Miranda and ticket prices started at $1.00 for adults and 40 cents for children. This hall was used until 1986 when renovations closed the venue for several months. Forced to move on, Miranda Musical Society found a new home at the Sutherland Entertainment Centre where since, many successful shows have been staged.

Miranda Musical Society was incorporated in 1991.

We are very proud of this 50th year milestone and will be celebrating with a function on

BEAUTY AND THE BEAST
​SUTHERLAND ENTERTAINMENT CENTRE

Be Our Guest at the Sutherland Entertainment Centre!

Capturing the imagination of more than 35 million people worldwide, Disney’s Beauty and the Beast, the smash hit Broadway musical, is returning to Miranda Musical Society!

Based on the Academy Award-winning animated feature film, Beauty and the Beast is a dazzling musical spectacle filled with beloved characters, gorgeous costumes and magical music from award winning artists Alan Menken, Howard Ashman & Tim Rice. Relive this enchanting tale as old as time with dazzling production numbers from the iconic opening number, to Gaston, Be Our Guest and of course the titular ballroom sequence we all know and love.

When Belle, an incredible woman with an adventurous heart finds herself imprisoned by a mysterious Beast in an enchanted castle, she uncovers a magical world. Instantly befriending the enchanted servants from talking candlesticks to chipped tea cups, Belle is quick to learn of the Beast's infamous temper and intolerable nature. However, the two unlikely acquaintances find that there's more to each other than first meets the eye when both Beauty and the Beast unexpectedly discover the everlasting magic of true love.

It is with deepest pride and greatest pleasure that Miranda Musical Society presents this enchanting love story in a dazzling new production that will delight the whole family.
