EDITORS COMMENTS
This poster announces the presentation of Gilbert & Sullivan's beloved light opera, "The Gondoliers," by the Federal Music Project under the direction of Handel Wadsworth. The cast of one hundred enthusiastic performers is poised to bring the wit and charm of this classic work to life. The Progressive Era backdrop of the 1930s infuses the production with a sense of community and inclusivity, reflecting the mission of the Works Progress Administration (WPA) to provide employment and cultural opportunities during a time of economic hardship. Gilbert & Sullivan's collaboration produced a series of groundbreaking operas that continue to enchant audiences with their clever librettos and memorable music. In "The Gondoliers," two gondoliers from Venice are unexpectedly crowned kings, leading to a series of comedic misunderstandings and romantic entanglements. The opera's enchanting score, filled with memorable tunes such as "The Song of the Gondoliers" and "I've Got a Little List," is sure to delight and entertain. Handel Wadsworth, a respected figure in the world of music and theater, expertly guides this impressive cast through the intricacies of the production. His direction ensures that the humor, music, and drama of "The Gondoliers" shine brightly, making for an unforgettable theatrical experience. This poster serves as a testament to the power of the arts to bring people together and uplift spirits, even in the most challenging of times.
