The Mikado by Gilbert and Sullivan
12 September 2021 |6:30 pm - 9:30 pm
If you are in need of distraction then come and see this production of the Mikado based in the topsy-turvy town of Titipu in the land of Pajan!
It will be full of romance, chicanery and a legal conundrum under the capricious eye of the Mikado himself.
It can only be a Gilbert and Sullivan operetta. No one else could dream up such a story line. Nanki-Poo cannot marry Yum-Yum because she is betrothed to Ko-Ko, the Lord High Executioner, who cannot do his duty without executing himself. Yet when the Mikado insists upon an execution, somehow no-one loses his head.
A production by The Merry Opera Company, directed by John Ramster with musical direction by Bradley Wood.
