LLANGOLLEN Operatic Society have begun rehearsals for their forthcoming musical comedy.

A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum is a fast-moving comedy set in Ancient Roman times.

Pseudolus, a slave, is promised his freedom if he can secure the girl his master’s heart is set on.

There is much hilarity and farce along the way and some lively songs including Comedy Tonight and Every One Should Have a Maid.

The show will be held on Tuesday, April 22, and Saturday, April 26.
