Amelia Musical Playhouse Presents A Festival of Gilbert & Sullivan
February 23-25, 2024
Before Taylor Swift… before The Beatles…before Elvis. We had Gilbert & Sullivan. Their comic operettas took the English-speaking world by storm. They heavily influenced the development of modern musical theater. Their works prompted references in literally hundreds of plays, movies, and television shows — including The Producers, Hamilton, The Simpsons and Raiders of the Lost Ark.
And now, Amelia Musical Playhouse will bring highlights of these classic works to Fernandina Beach in a staged concert featuring songs from The Mikado, H.M.S. Pinafore, Pirates of Penzance, and more.
The topsy-turvy program will be hosted by Frank O’Donnell, Amelia Underwood and Jeff Goldberg and feature more than a dozen talented actor-singers.
Be prepared for some tongue-twisting patter songs, beautiful harmonies, and maybe a surprise or two.
Directed by O’Donnell with music direction by Lynn Arizzi.
Sponsored by Jan Cote-Merow in Memory of Tom Cote-Merow.
