Six Performances over two weekends: November 1, 2, 3, 8, 9 & 10 at The Academy of Music Northampton, MASee Gilbert & Sullivan's Mikado as you’ve never seen it before! Set in the Highlands of Scotland, it tells the story of a wandering minstrel and the dainty maiden he loves, a tailor who became the Lord High Executioner and the McAdo who leads them all. VLO is bringing new life to this wonderful operetta with beautiful voices, lively dancing, sumptuous costumes, and lots and lots of humor.
Stage Director • Jacqueline Haney
Music Director • Aldo Fabrizi
Choreographer • Emily Moner
Coordinating Producer • Ted Blaisdell
Matinee performances on November 2, 3, 9, and 10 will be preceded by a pre-curtain talk given by Michael Greenebaum, a founding member of the company and the conductor of two of its productions of The Mikado. He will explain why The Mikado set in Japan became The McAdo set in Scotland and why our delight in the glories of this opera should be accompanied by sensitivity to issues surrounding its performance. Ticket holders should enter the auditorium a few minutes before 1 o’clock and come forward to the front of the auditorium for the talk, which is intended for all ages.
