This is not the Mikado - it is the story of
the Farndale Avenue Townswomen's Guild and their attempt to produce their own
version of Gilbert and Sullivan's wonderful comic opera, "The Mikado".
They have already produced a number of shows and some of them have been
successful. Now they are to embark on their most ambitious project so far.
A musical presents them with huge challenges: costumes, casting, musical scores
and scenery. So much to get right, so much to go wrong!
However, they do get a show going and many of the well known songs do get
sung. "I've got a little list", "Three little maids", "A wondering Minstrel",
"On a tree by a river (tit-willow)" and many more.
If, at the end of the show, you hear a rumbling sound, it will be Gilbert
and Sullivan turning in their graves!
