What is The Gilbert & Sullivan Opera Company of Chicago : the first 50 years about?
The Gilbert & Sullivan Opera Company of The First 50 Years traces the history of the Company, a group founded in the University of Chicagos Hyde Park neighborhood by singers with a love of the light comic opera works of the late 19th-century British lyricist/composer duo. The Company continues to mount annual productions today in collaboration with the University Chamber Orchestra of the University of Chicago. Every one of the fourteen operas in the Gilbert and Sullivan canon have been performed by the Company. For those who have thrilled to the Companys performances over the years, this book contains a complete chronology of its 50 productions, with full cast listings, production crews, selected program covers, and many photos featuring the principal stars. If youre part of a group of G&S fans mounting your own production, be inspired by the sets and costumes created by a variety of designers. For those who simply love the works of Gilbert and Sullivan, there are plot summaries of each opera and anecdotes about their first staging by the DOyly Carte Opera Company in London.
