| DVD Information |  | Gilbert & Sullivan - The Mikado | | (II), Kenny Baker | | Barclay, John | | UPC: 014381452921 | | Drama : General | | Description
As an operetta, The Mikado was the culmination of Gilbert & Sullivan's work--the tale of Japanese prince Nanki-Poo, who is on the run from an arranged marriage, masquerading as a balladeer. He falls in love with Yum-Yum, a woman betrothed to the Lord High Executioner, who has problems of his own--his job (and life) depends upon at least one execution taking place each month, but he's without a current prospect for the ax. Nanki-Poo agrees to be executed if he is allowed to marry Yum-Yum so that he will have a month of romantic bliss, and a comedy of errors ensues, all sparked by classic songs such as A Wandering Minstrel I and Three Little Maids from School. | | | | Products related to "Gilbert & Sullivan - The Mikado" from Amazon.com | |
