This popular operetta holds its grip on the American imagination through an indomitable set of songs that refuse to be forgotten. Tunes such as the infamously fast-paced “I Am the Very Model of a Modern Major-General,” originally penned in the 1870s, have reemerged seamlessly throughout pop culture. As the premier producer of Gilbert and Sullivan’s works, Lamplighters Music Theatre presents this comic adventure through the eyes of director Michael Mohammed. Sentiment, hope and a courageous heroine color this timeless tale.
