Fast, funny, and brilliantly clever — musical theater with a wink and a whirlwind pace.
Gilbert & Sullivan Unbuttoned is a brisk, glittering, and gloriously topsy-turvy entertainment in which pirates parade, maidens flutter, captains bluster, baritones patter at perilous speed, and no one in possession of rank, dignity, or self-importance remains entirely safe for very long. Your Space Coast Symphony Orchestra dashes through a sparkling assortment of favorites from The Mikado, The Pirates of Penzance, H.M.S. Pinafore, Patience, Iolanthe, The Yeomen of the Guard, and The Gondoliers, where wit is razor-sharp, melody is endlessly irresistible, and satire arrives dressed in the most charming music imaginable. Featured guest artists Mary Anne Kruger, Sarah Purser, Kit Cleto, Bryan Hayes, Andrew Lejeune and Stephen Mumbert, with additional soloists to be announced, lead a nimble cast of singers who serve as both soloists and chorus, tumbling from the bright sparkle of Three Little Maids from School Are We and the breathless brilliance of I Am the Very Model of a Modern Major-General to the noble sentiment of He Is an Englishman and the deliciously stealthy menace of With Cat-Like Tread. As though this cheerful nonsense were not already abundance enough, trumpeter Robert Chambers joins the festivities for Hummel’s Trumpet Concerto in E major, a dazzling showpiece of elegance, agility, and brilliance that slips into the proceedings as neatly as a perfectly tied cravat. Light-footed, sharp-tongued, and unreasonably tuneful, Gilbert & Sullivan Unbuttoned promises an evening of merriment, mischief, and magnificent musical delight.
