In its 91-year history, the Blue Hill Troupe has produced the entire Gilbert & Sullivan canon. In 2005, the Blue Hill Troupe was honored with three awards at the 12th Annual International Gilbert & Sullivan Festival in Buxton, UK, for its innovative production of the G&S rarity, "The Grand Duke." The all-volunteer Blue Hill Troupe has been featured on CBS Sunday Morning and appeared with The New York Pops at Carnegie Hall. For fifteen years, they were a mainstay of the Metropolitan Museum of Art's Concerts and Lectures series, and they continue to concertize in venues around the city.
