From May 14-17 next year, the award-winning society will be
staging its own take on Gilbert & Sullivan’s Mikado at the Town Hall in Llangollen.
The show will present the evergreen light opera in a
modern-day setting and feature a host of characters with “real attitude”,
according to a society spokesperson.
Among the parts up for grabs are the Mikado (bass or bass
baritone), Nanki-Poo, his son (tenor), Ko-Ko, Lord High Executioner (comic
baritone), Yum-Yum, a ward of Ko-Ko (soprano), Katisha (contralto) and Peep-Bo
(soprano and mezzo soprano).
More details of the production and what parts are on offer
will be unveiled at an open evening at the Operatic Studio off Castle Street in
Llangollen on Tuesday, November 12, starting at 7.30pm.
This will be followed by open auditions at the Town Hall in
Castle Street on Tuesday, November 19.
