03.01.2022 AN IMPORTANT STATEMENT REGARDING WISH UPON A SONG AND COVID-19. As we are all too well aware, the escalating events and response to COVID-19 has been extremely fluid and fast moving, particularly over the past few days, and as a company, we have gone from monitoring the situation to now being compelled to act. The committee of Geelong Lyric Theatre Society, together with the ‘Wish Upon A Song’ Production Team have agreed, in an attempt to safeguard the personal well-being of... our cast and the health of our community, to postpone our May 2020 production. Thank you to our wonderful cast, orchestra and to the Geelong Youth Choir Inc. for the wonderful rehearsals already undertaken and the unwavering commitment to this spectacular production. I would also like to thank our community for all your support to date and we wish you and your families all the very best during this time of uncertainty. Further details will be released as they are confirmed over the coming weeks and months and as we continue to work closely with our creatives, cast and the Geelong Arts Centre to ensure ‘Wish Upon A Song’ is staged as soon as practical. Lisa Hunter President On behalf of the committee of Geelong Lyric Theatre Society and the production team of ‘Wish Upon A Song’.
