"The Mikado is absolutely timeless, its captivating melodies, hilarious lyrics and dialogue - engaging as they are — expose the tawdry political environment of a fictionalized island nation and at the same time presents an incredible insight on the current political scene in our world today."
This rollicking version of Gilbert and Sullivan’s most popular tale relocates the action from ancient Japan to an imaginary 1930s Pacific seaside resort society in "cabaret style" with an expanded food and drink concessions menu. The Mikado follows the story of a wandering minstrel who happens to be the son of the Mikado, the emperor of the island nation. When he falls for a girl who is already engaged, deals are struck and hilarity ensues in this light-hearted production penned by master satirists W.S. Gilbert and Arthur Sullivan. The 19th-century composing duo also created such operatic classics as "The Pirates of Penzance" and "H.M.S. Pinafore," among many others. General admission, doors open 45 minutes before showtime.
