Opera della Luna’s new production of Gilbert and Sullivan’s first success moves the story from its quaint Victorian setting to sleepy rural Britain in the 1970s.
John Wellington Wells, the celebrated dealer in ‘magic and spells’, spreads chaos and havoc in an unsuspecting country village, when he places a powerful aphrodisiac in the village hall teapot. The resulting revelations are indeed ‘a marvellous illusion, a terrible surprise!’
Opera della Luna have earned themselves a matchless reputation, celebrating over 15 years of acclaimed productions of Gilbert and Sullivan, Offenbach and Johann Strauss. Their recent productions of HMS Pinafore and Die Fledermaus played to sell-out houses and gained rave reviews.
The Sorcerer will be at the Lichfield Garrick on Thursday 17 February at 7.30pm. Tickets cost £19.75, and can be booked from www.lichfieldgarrick.com or by calling the Box Office on 01543 412121.
