Who are we?
Turaton Music Company is a not for profit theatrical
group. Our company comprises of members
from diverse backgrounds, drawn together by a love of singing and theatre. Our company is headed by a committee of up to 12 members and each year
puts on shows for the enjoyment and benefit of local communities.
Turaton
started life in 1944 as the Tatura Male Choir, providing entertainment around
the Tatura district, west of
The
company has changed over the years, but maintains a wide theatrical talent,
both on and off-stage, of women and men with ages ranging from 17 to 70.
What do we do?
The
company focuses on a May concert, with choral and solo pieces and an end of
year theatrical/ music hall type of show in November. Turaton puts on these shows in conjunction
with local charitable organisations, such as Lions, Rotary and Parkinsons’
Support Group, to name a few. These
groups combine with Turaton to raise money for their organisations, which in
turn is returned to the community in other charitable works.
Rehearsals
commence in late January for the May concert and in July/August for the
November show.
