The Mikado: A Long Island Fantasy
The Mikado: A Long Island Fantasy is a re-imagination of the original production set in the Gold Coast era of Long Island’s east end, a time distant and yet oh-so-familiar. The magic of the 20s will “roar” again as we strip away the tropes of more traditional stagings and bring forth the magic of a “Fantasy”.
Yum-Yum (Sabrina Lopez) weighs the merits of two suitors, the earnest Nanki-Poo (Richard Risi, left) and the wily Ko-Ko (Michael John Ruggiere), in the Gilbert & Sullivan Light Opera Company of Long Island’s 2022 production of “The Mikado: A Long Island Fantasy.”
I am thrilled to announce my leading debut as Nanki-Poo of G&Slocoli's roaring 20's version of The Mikado! The music is memorable and unique/quirky, with a wonderful cast of performers.
