THE MIKADO
by The Merry Opera Company
Desperate to get away? Take a trip to the topsy-turvy town of Titipu in the land of Pajan!
Find romance, chicanery and a legal conundrum under the capricious eye of the Mikado.
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……
It is our absolute Merry pleasure to be returning to the stage with our brand new production of Gilbert & Sullivan's The Mikado. After an incredibly difficult year and a half, we can't think of a better way to celebrate a return to Merry form than with this surprising and high-octane romp through a beloved operetta classic, set against the backdrop of the energy and ebullience of music halls and vaudeville.
Looking forward to seeing you there! We've missed you!
A production by The Merry Opera Company, directed by John Ramster with musical direction by Bradley Wood.
