English Touring Opera - The Gondoliers
at The Arts Theatre, Cambridge
Add to your event list
Two handsome and charming gondoliers discover that one is the long-lost heir to the throne of Barataria - but which one?
In the pursuit of the truth, a bewildering series of events threaten both their marriages and their claims to the throne.
The Gondoliers, Gilbert and Sullivan’s last great success, is a fizzing comedy of mistaken identity that marries joy and chaos with a sharp satire of monarchy and class. This new production is helmed by Liam Steel, who directed ETO’s Olivier Award-winning production of Paul Bunyan.
Sung in English with English surtitles.
