The Mikado

 

Australia’s love affair with G&S (and let’s face it, how many creators are instantly recognised by their initials alone?) is almost as enduring as the works themselves. Some of Australia’s favourite Savoyards including Anthony Warlow, Heather Begg, Dennis Olsen and Graeme Ewer star in the Opera Australia productions of these perennial favourites.

‘Wit, ingenuity, and a veritable riot of colourful and restless spectacle continue to make The Australian Opera production of The Mikado an experience designed to seduce the eye, charm the ear, and tickle the rib…’ SYDNEY MORNING HERALD

‘The sets are breathtakingly oriental – and full of surprises. The costumes are a masterpiece of eccentricity, weaving together traditional Japanese and traditional London City.’ THE DAILY MIRROR
