Following the 2007 sell-out concert, the Bohemians returned with an exciting new collection of songs from stage and screen that took you on a musical journey to the four corners of the earth…… .and beyond!

This year’s Fringe concert was again staged in St. Andrew’s and St. George’s Church (S.T.A.G.S.) on George Street – right in the City centre and at the heart of all the Festival action. 

S.T.A.G.S. is an extremely popular and prestigious Fringe Venue and the Concert in 2007 was a complete sell-out. In response to this demand for tickets two performances were staged on 19 and 21 August 2008.

Centenary Celebrations
The Bohemians Lyric Opera Company
The Bohemians, who were originally established by a customs and excise officer, celebrate their centenary year together with a raffle offering booze as the prize - all above board, of course. This is a gala concert of West End and Broadway numbers chosen from the wealth of wonderful musicals that the last century has bestowed upon us. It is a show of two halves, beginning with moving songs from classic musicals like 'West Side Story' and 'Fiddler on the Roof' and eventually progressing to light-hearted songs from contemporary shows like 'Legally Blonde' and 'Mamma Mia'. Individually, with each thoroughly accomplished soloist, and together in perfect choral unity, the Bohemians prove why they are likely to be around for another hundred years.
St. Andrew's & St. George's Church, 19 - 20 Aug, 7.30 pm, 8.00, fpp 169.
