presented by Illyria
Josephine, the captain’s daughter, is in love with Ralph, a common sailor. But her father insists that she marries Sir Joseph Porter, First Lord of the Admiralty – whose roving eye has already noticed her. The lovers are caught as they elope from the ship and Ralph is locked in the ship’s dungeon. Can revelations made by Buttercup, the dockside vendor, finally enable everyone to marry their true hearts’ loves?
Full to the gunwales with sharp dialogue and catchy tunes, this timeless comic opera is performed outdoors by a cast of six on a spectacular nautical set, using Sullivan’s full score.
