Opera Anywhere’s new Mikado – a new production directed by Tristan Stocks
The Mikado now set in Ancient Rome in Opera Anywhere’s ingenious new production, “The Emperor of Rome” –is a sparklingly clever story with twists and turns at every scene. Familiar characters, including the Lord High Executioner, Koko and Nanki-Poo, find themselves in a new setting as they compete for the hand of Yum Yum, whilst trying not to fall foul of the emperor’s displeasure and lose their head!
With well-known songs including “I’ve got a little list”, “Three little maids from school” and many more, you can sing along to this hilarious journey with a fresh take on a well-loved story.
