YORK Light Opera Society celebrates the Millennium next week with its Songs From The Century musical revue.

Running from June 19 to 24 at Joseph Rowntree Theatre, York, this nostalgic show cherry-picks songs from every decade of the past 100 years.

From the early years of the last century come such music-hall favourites as The Galloping Major, Waiting At the Church and Yankee Doodle Dandy; from the Twenties, Tea For Two; from the Thirties and Forties, an Ivor Novello selection, Friendship from Crazy For You and The Lady Is A Tramp from Pal Joey.

Forties favourites include Don't Sit Under The Apple Tree and the Farmer And The Cowman from Oklahoma!; the Fifties are represented by Rhythm Of Life from Sweet Charity; America from West Side Story and Blue Suede Shoes from the dawn of rock'n'roll.

Fiddler On The Roof and Hair are the Sixties' selection; One Singular Sensation from A Chorus Line and Barry Manilow's One Voice are among the Seventies' numbers, and the Eighties and Nineties are given over to songs from Chess, Les Miserables and Miss Saigon.

Director and musical arranger Bev Jones has 35 singers on parade in the two-hour show. Performances are at 7.30pm next Monday to Saturday, plus 3pm on the last day. Tickets: from £6.75, at York Theatre Royal box office, tel 01904 623568.
