Thespis - The Gods Grown Old

Work:: Thespis (S01585878123)

The libretto has survived, but no musical score was ever published. Sullivan when questioned about this said he had saved up the tunes for other operettas; indeed those familiar with Sullivan's music will recognise many a familiar tune! A company of actors blunders into the presence of the Gods on Mount Olympus. The Olympians have fallen on hard times, and persuade the actors to take over their divine functions with comically disastrous results!

Music	A.Sullivan
Lyrics	W.S.Gilbert

Production:: The Gods Grown Old (T072552501)

This October we bring you a rare opportunity to see 'Thespis', or 'The Gods Grown Old', Gilbert and Sullivan's very first full length operetta.
