'The Gondoliers' represents a return to the satirical and ebullient Gilbert and Sullivan of 'The Mikado' after the grim Ruddigore and Yeoman of the Guard.

Naturally he turns out to be Casilda's own true love Luiz who she was forced to give up to look for her rightful husband.

After creating eight works for the stage Gilbert and Sullivan outdid themselves with a macabre farce set in the Far East. It is the most popular Gilbert and Sullivan opera and arguably the most popular opera ever written. This may have had something to do with the vogue for all things Japanese at the time but it is also due to the universal appeal of the characters - every culture has a bribe-hungry Pooh-Bah giggling schoolgirls and a pathetic elderly Katisha. This edition of the Chorus part includes all cues and a synopsis. It is edited by Bryceson Treharne.
