The University of Sheffield Light Entertainment Society (USLES) have revealed their upcoming semester 2 show, putting on their first original musical from the society’s president. Written by Martha Allison, Chosen Ones promises us an exciting show from the light entertainment society, with the caption “every story needs a villain” our only clue so far!
Taking to a newly-formed social media account earlier today, the production announced: “USLES’s newest show, Chosen Ones, by Martha Allison. Coming this Spring!”. Tickets are already available through the Students’ Union website, which has provided us with more information about the production. The description from the ticket link invites us to “follow our villains Captain Hook, Count Dracula III, Victor Frankenstein, Femme Fatale and Wiglaf (the lackey) on a journey through Teriarnva to retrieve the Wish and stop all heroes in their tracks…or suffer the consequences of crossing the Lady of Misfortune”.
Being staged in Theatre Deli in May, Chosen Ones marks the first musical USLES have ever put on, and follows their semester 1 production The Cheese Time, which played in Coffee Revolution before Christmas. The society, which prides itself on finding roles for all auditionees for shows, has been working on this latest production for several months already, and are now preparing for their two-night run later this semester.
As we approach the end of the year, another one of our creative societies have revealed their final project vying for audiences to close the year on a high. And with as curious a description as Chosen Ones has, we are eagerly anticipating more news on USLES’ latest venture.
USLES’ Chosen Ones is playing from May 10th to 11th at Theatre Deli. Tickets are available here
