Thomson-Leng Musical Society is a Dundee-based theatrical organization that produces musical theatre productions of varied genres. Originally established for employees of D. C. Thomson & Co., the society includes members from the general public.

History

[edit]

Founded in 1964, Thomson-Leng Musical Society was originally established for employees of D.C. Thomson & Co. Ltd. as an opportunity for the workforce to gather together and have fun in staging musical productions.

The original Society went from being exclusively for DC Thomson employees, to including family members of the employees to finally becoming a Musical Society that welcomes members of the general public.

In 1998, the Society created a Youth Music Theatre.

The Society produces one main musical production and a pantomime each year along with other events held throughout the year.
