G & S ​"A Rollicking Romp"

About

Opera South East presents "A rollicking romp", a musical journey through the topsy turvey world of Gilbert & Sullivan, featuring excerpts from all your favourite Savoy Operas, costumed and semi-staged.

The Savoy Operas created fanciful worlds where each absurdity is taken to its logical conclusion fairies rub elbows with British Lords, flirting is a capital offence, gondoliers ascend to the monarchy, and pirates emerge as noblemen who have gone astray. Sullivan composed the music, contributing memorable melodies that could convey both humour and pathos.
Gilbert & Sullivan's operas have enjoyed broad and enduring international success. They introduced innovations in content and form that directly influenced the development of musical theatre through the 20th century. The operas have also influenced political discourse, literature, film and television and have been widely parodied and pastiched by humorists. 
If you enjoy the humour and the drama of the Savoy Operas this performance will keep you humming those memorable melodies for days to come. Don't miss it!
