Iolanthe

Step into a whimsical world where fairies clash with the British Parliament in one of Gilbert and Sullivan’s most enchanting operettas. Iolanthe blends sparkling satire, romantic twists, and magical mischief, all set to Sullivan’s memorable score. This comic opera tells the tale of Iolanthe, a fairy banished for marrying a mortal, and her son Strephon, a half-fairy shepherd who dreams of marrying the beautiful Phyllis—if only the Lords of Parliament would agree. With pointed political humour, lyrical brilliance, and delightful absurdity, Iolanthe remains as fresh and funny today as when it first premiered. Join us for a spellbinding evening of music, misrule, and magical mayhem.
