W.S. Gilbert and Arthur Sullivan were the most popular playwriting team of Victorian England, with Sullivan's lively tunes providing an irresistible setting for Gilbert's barbed wit.

The Mikado's deliciously tangled love story is actually a satire of senseless laws, self-important officials, and political “spin.” As relevant and hilarious today as it was in 1885, it is full of singable songs and the source of such popular expressions as “Pooh-Bah,” “I have a little list,” and “Let the punishment fit the crime.”

Don't miss this English language classic in a production the Los Angeles Daily News calls “The Mikado as it ought to be.”
