The Gondoliers - Pittsburgh Savoyards

Uploaded by Mia Bonnewell
The Gondoliers or, the King of Barataria is Gilbert & Sullivan's enormously popular comedic Italian operetta. Two different storylines collide in one boisterous and joyous show! Spanning both stories is the marvelously menacing Grand Inquisitor, Don Alhambra del Bolero, who stole the infant son of the King of Barataria and cast him off to Venice, but only after the young future monarch was secretly wed to a nobleman’s daughter. After much confusion, lots of exuberant dancing, and jolly Italianate musical ensembles, the rightful heir to the throne is found!
