EDITORS COMMENTS
This souvenir program from the D'Oyly Carte Season of Gilbert and Sullivan Operas at the Princes Theatre in London, spanning the period from September 1919 to January 1920, offers a glimpse into the magical world of W.S. Gilbert and Arthur Sullivan's timeless operettas. The program showcases an impressive cast of characters from various productions, including "The Mikado," "The Pirates of Penzance," "Patience," and "Iolanthe." The large cast, dressed in their elaborate costumes, exudes an air of comic charm and operatic grandeur. The program includes photographs of the principal artists, such as Rutland Barrington as Ko-Ko in "The Mikado," and Ella Retford as Patience, as well as the chorus and ensemble members. The revival of these classic operettas during this season marked an important moment in the history of British musical theatre. The D'Oyly Carte Opera Company, which had been performing the works since their premières in the late 19th century, continued to delight audiences with their production of these comic gems. The program also includes information about the principal artists, synopses of each opera, and advertisements for other productions at the Princes Theatre. This souvenir program is not only a valuable historical document but also a testament to the enduring appeal of Gilbert and Sullivan's operettas, which continue to be enjoyed by audiences around the world. The brochure's cover features a striking image of the Princes Theatre, adorned with the logos of the D'Oyly Carte Opera Company and the Gilbert and Sullivan Savoy Society. The overall design of the program is elegant and sophisticated, reflecting the high standards of the production and the prestige of the theatre. This rare and intriguing artifact offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of Gilbert and Sullivan operettas during a pivotal moment in their history.
