English National Opera's new staging of Gilbert & Sullivan's most heartfelt collaboration. At the Tower of London, the unjustly imprisoned Colonel Fairfax awaits his execution... Can he be saved by his old friend the Beefeater Sergeant Meryll? Or by the Sergeant's daughter Phoebe, who's fallen in love with him? Or even, strange as it may seem, by the roving street performers Jack Point and Elsie Maynard?
Presented from the London Coliseum by Andrew McGregor with guest commentator Catrine Kirkman.
