Iolanthe
by Sir Arthur Sullivan and William Gilbert
Sinfonicron Light Opera Company's production of Iolanthe took place
January 17th-20th, 2013.
SYNOPSIS
After Iolanthe, a fairy, commits the capital offense of marrying a mortal, she is banished from Fairyland for life. She gives birth to their son, Strephon, who, as a result, is half mortal, half fairy. After the Queen of the Fairies, who is fond of Iolanthe, agrees to pardon her, Iolanthe announces that her son Strephon will soon be married to Phyllis, an Arcadian shepherdess.
Problems occur when it turns out that every member of the House of Lords is also in love with Phyllis. The Lords and Phyllis happen upon a meeting between Strephon and his mother (who still looks seventeen) and the Lords convince Phyllis that Strephon is being unfaithful.
