Join Nelson Civic Choir and soloists for an entertaining musical romp through the fanciful "topsy-turvy" worlds of Gilbert and Sullivan in an afternoon of costumed frivolity with excerpts from The Gondoliers, The Mikado, The Pirates of Penzance, Iolanthe and many more.
Presenting at the Theatre Royal Nelson for the first time in many years, members of the Nelson Civic Choir pull out all the Victorian stops. Gilbert and Sullivan created a world where each absurdity is taken to its logical conclusion: fairies rub elbows with British Lords, flirting is a capital offence, gondoliers ascend to the monarchy, and pirates emerge as noblemen who have gone astray.
Choral Comedy presents an afternoon of memorable melodies with perfectly outrageous storylines performed in a completely deadpan way.
