Gilbert & Sullivan
It’s Sumptuous! It’s Silly! It’s Stupendous … It’s a Soiree of Song & Satire
(And it’s just for you, Brisbane!)
Dust off your finest and polish your monocles, Brisbane! Prospero Arts is serving up a delightfully dizzying, wonderfully witty, and downright joyful concert celebration of the undisputed kings of theatrical chaos: Gilbert & Sullivan.
Whether you’re a lifelong Gilbert & Sullivan fan, who knows every word to “The Major-General” or a complete newcomer who just loves a bit of spectacular silliness – we all need a show like this right now!
We’re packing a treasure chest full of humour, world-class talent, and irresistible earworms, taking you on a rapid-fire journey through the absolute best bits!
The A-Team of Absurdity
Steering this magnificent ship of musical madness is none other than Australia’s own, director Stuart Maunder AM. He’s rounding up a stellar crew of beloved Queensland and national stage royalty, backed by a massive 19-piece orchestra live on stage, led by our magical maestro James Dobinson.
Starring Ben Mingay, Cassandra Seidemann, Nina Korbe, Billy Bourchier, Jason Barry-Smith and Irena Lysiuk, A Soirée of Song and Satire is Gilbert & Sullivan as it was meant to be experienced!
Expect soaring vocals, sharp-witted satire, gorgeous romance, and just the right amount of beautiful, theatrical madness.
