Marvellous Mikado at the Buxton Gilbert and Sullivan Festival
Andrew H. King, 31st July
The Gilbert and Sullivan canon perhaps achieves the pinnacle of its greatness with The Mikado. The ninth of their fourteen collaborations, it was premièred at the Savoy Theatre in 1885 and the gentlemen were rewarded with an extraordinary success.
