Utterly delightful! :o)

Yes I knew that set..... Brilliant... I saw the great John Reed.. as Gama.... keep the spirit of G&S going

Too bad they're all three in the same video. I would have liked to rate them separately. The first one delivers with utmost perfection. The next AND the next, with less and less perfection.

I miss you!
I hope that the set recovers!!

Just curious how did the D'Oyly Carte sets designed by James Wade for Princess Ida end up in Texas.....? there must be a story there!

:) Simple. Our Star and Director, Alistair Donkin (formerly a D'OC patterman) has been affiliated with our company since '82. Through his connection, we had an opportunity to purchase that 1950's Ida set, and we did. It's an amazing thing to share the stage with that beautiful work of art. We're lucky to get to work with Donkin every year too.

Nothing can compare to The Lamplighters Ida. Sorry.

Is that one on YouTube (or elsewhere) I'd love to see it? As G&S companies go, the really good ones are pretty few and far between -- they're certainly one of the good ones.
