The Gilbert and Sullivan Very Light Opera company is a great resource. They've done FAR the best amateur performances I've seen (I've only seen a couple of professional performances, and the best GSVLOC have been better than one of the professional ones). They've gone though the whole canon several times since I've been following them, at the stately rate of one performance a year (the concert performances are usually something from a recent year, rather than the same as the current year's fully-staged performance).
I can't tell if they don't care as much about dance, or if they simply have a small enough stage that it limits their choreography seriously. Since I don't care as much about dance, it's not a big worry for me, anyway.
