The Mikado
First performances:  Rosemary Branch / Kings Head Theatre 2011/12

* * * * THE GUARDIAN:
"...such is the energy of the cast, and their attention to both text and music in John Savournin's staging, that the piece comes over with almost reckless gusto.... The tone is pitched somewhere between the theatre of the absurd and vaudeville, with the opera's preposterous elements taken seriously and its serious moments delivered with deadpan facetiousness.... a small-scale production that hits the spot."

Director:  John Savournin
Musical Director:  David Eaton
Set and Costume Design:  Gregor Donnelly
Lighting:  Nic Holdridge
