The Mikado – Wilton’s Music Hall

Take one classic operetta, mix it up a bit, add some brilliant choreography, phenomenal singing and a fantastically talented all-male ensemble and you have a witty and joyful new show.

At the heart of the convoluted plot is the law enacted by the Mikado that makes flirting a capital crime.

On their journey, they encounter more problems, all of which can be traced back to the weasels.

The stunning set designed by Tom Piper and Emma Brunton’s movement direction wove the plot together to a symbiotic effect. The scene changes with ropes hinted at manual labour and gave the piece a community/village feel. The story was set in Lon...
