IOLANTHE (pronounced "eye-oh-LAN-thee") is a beautiful fairy who was 
banished from fairyland for marrying a mortal, a capital offense!  But 
(oops!) she was just a little bit pregnant when she was sent to the 
bottom of a stream for the rest of her life (i.e. eternity since fairies 
never grow old!). Her son Strephon, now 25 years old, is half mortal. 
"Which half," you might ask... His fiancée, Phyllis, wonders that same 
thing.  Perhaps that's a question best left for Gilbert & Sullivan to 
answer...

For a comic change of pace Cleveland Opera presents Gilbert and 
Sullivan's IOLANTHE -- December 5-7, 2003 as the second production in 
the company's 2003/04 season.  The title is odd but it's all about fun, 
great music and merry mockery of lawyers, and of the British Parliament! 
General Director David Bamberger says, "This was the first show that I 
ever saw, so I can guarantee that it is a wonderful work with which to 
introduce children, and grandchildren, to theatre.  Yet I love it even 
more as an adult! It is amazingly contemporary."

Sullivan's score is unfailingly delightful, including the most 
celebrated of all G&S patter numbers, "The Nightmare Song", performed by 
area favorite Frederick Reeder as the Lord Chancellor.  Lots of other 
area artists have leading roles, all supported by the Cleveland Opera 
Chorus and accompanied by the Cleveland Opera Orchestra.
