Charles Court Opera return to the Festival to present their enchanting production of Gilbert & Sullivan's sharp satire of power, privilege, and parliamentary democracy.

Directed by Festival favourite, John Savournin, this witty and magical operetta tells a tale of forbidden love causing an absurdist fusion of two worlds - the magical fairies of Fairyland and a bamboozled House of Peers.

Featuring some of Sullivan's most glorious music, including Oh Foolish Fay, If You Go On, You're Sure To Win, and what is popularly known as The Nightmare Song, audiences can expect an evening of first-class entertainment and riotous fun suitable for all ages.

With a cast including familiar faces such as Matthew Kellett, Meriel Cunningham and Lilo Evans this magical production is not to be missed.
