AMYAS Theatricall

AMYAS owes its very existence to the theatre. Its founding members, met working at Shakespeare's Globe Theatre and began exploring other repertoire together whilst performing on Broadway. Many of the instruments the group performs on were ones which were popular in theatrical productions in the 16th, 17th and 18th Centuries and their performances often have a very Theatricall flair!

Humour is a vital part of our human psyche and AMYAS members never miss a chance for a musical joke.
