The Gondoliers

January 26 - February 4, 2024

The Gondoliers (or The King of Barataria is the twelfth collaboration between composer Arthur Sullivan and librettist W.S. Gilbert. It is the story of two charming Venetian gondoliers, Marco and Giuseppe, who are informed that, due to an error of identity when they were young boys, one of them is the heir to the throne of Barataria. They are delighted with the situation and agree to share the responsibilities of governing their new kingdom until it can be ascertained which of them is which, but matters are complicated when the Duke and Duchess of Plaza Toro reveal that their beautiful daughter, Casilda, was married to the future king as an infant. The problem? Giuseppe and Marco are both newly married. Since its premiere in 1889, The Gondoliers has delighted audiences with its sparkling score by Sullivan, and its political satire, cleverly tucked into Gilbert’s witty plot line
