The cast for THE MIKADO features Patrick Ryan Sullivan in the title role of the Mikado of Japan; Dick Baker as Nanki-Poo, his son, disguised as a Wandering Minstrel; Glenn Gover as Ko-Ko, Lord High Executioner of the Town of Titipu; Larry Alexander as Pooh-Bah, Lord High Everything Else, Emanuel Carrero, Gavin Esham and Mark Vincent Mansilungan as, respectively, Yum-Yum, Pitti-Sing and Peep-Bo, sisters and Wards of Ko-Ko; and Matthew McGee as Katisha, an Elderly Lady in love with Nanki-Poo.
According to Jim Sorensen, freeFall's Managing Director, "We are planning an exciting all-male Kabuki staging of THE MIKADO - one that is going to be full of spectacle and theatricality. In many ways THE MIKADO is the crown jewel of our Season of Outcasts. We are confident that this exciting musical production will delight audiences of all ages."
