Newbridge Musical Society was established in 1980 as a result of a number of meetings organised by the Community Council of Newbridge. The aim of the society was to provide an outlet to local theatre enthusiasts who wanted to stage musical productions for the entertainment of the residents of Newbridge and the greater Kildare area. Newbridge has always boasted a wealth of musical talent and the new society was to provide a fitting opportunity to give expression to this.
We are a community driven society, with our members coming not just from Newbridge but from neighbouring towns in the county. While our main event is our annual musical production, we are active all year round. Through our fundraising events for local charities, our gala concerts, our fashion shows, and our regular “get togethers” such as pub quizzes and coffee mornings, we provide our members with a chance to not only get involved with their local community, but also provide a social outlet and an opportunity to meet new people.
We welcome everyone over the age of sixteen who wish to be a part of our musical productions and any of our social events!
