The Mikado
Sullivan's ingenious melodic brilliance, derived from his vivid sense of satire, and Gilbert's witty libretto make 'The Mikado' one of the most widely performed of all operettas. The parody of British Victorian life, spiced with the usual topical allusions to English customs and institutions, set in a Japanese Never-Never Land, is performed by The Australian Opera. A lavish production, masterfully conducted by Andrew Greene and beautifully directed by Christopher Renshaw.
