The Mikado at Victorian Lyric Opera Company / F Scott Fitzgerald Theatre

The Victorian Lyric Opera Company (VLOC) presents W.S. Gilbert & Arthur Sullivan’s The Mikado, a most beloved and currently culturally controversial opera classic. It will be fully staged and accompanied by full orchestra. This comic two-act opera follows the son of the Mikado (the emperor of Japan), disguised as a wandering minstrel as he woos his beloved and attempts to evade both of their would-be spouses. The convoluted plot and delightfully clever score make for a hilarious criticism of the 19th century British elite.
