The Mikado

About This Show

The Chicago-based company The Hypocrites (Pirates of Penzance) reimagines this 1885 operetta, infusing the absurdist comedy of W.S. Gilbert’s libretto with Monty Python clownishness, and bringing a folk/pop interpretation to Arthur Sullivan’s lovely, lilting melodies. Expect zany fun and hip tunes in this vibrant adaptation of one of Gilbert and Sullivan’s most beloved works.

Please note that The Mikado has no fixed seats and is a General Admission show. You can physically move around the space with the actors, where there are surfaces on the set you can rest, but you may be asked to move during the performance.
