Nominated for two Offies 2023 Awards: Opera Production and Opera Performance - Ensemble.
Sasha Regan’s joyous all-male production of Gilbert & Sullivan’s The Mikado is set to bring a huge dollop of cheer to Cambridge this summer.
Expect plenty of tuneful golden earworms from a sensational cast singing the familiar rollicking G&S classics including A Wand’ring Minstrel, I, Behold the Lord High Executioner! and Three Little Maids From School Are We.
Regan’s inventive, all-male staging is inspired by her experiences of same sex school Gilbert & Sullivan productions. The action is cleverly and playfully transported to the 1950s when an all-boys’ school camping trip is visiting the land of Titipu. Adventures and topsy-turvy capers follow!
Gilbert & Sullivan’s inherent humour, satire on the English establishment and timeless tunefulness are married with Regan’s wicked sense of fun. The perfect uplifting tonic. Unmissable, toe-tapping fun.
The perfect uplifting tonic this summer at Cambridge Arts Theatre.
