'The Merry Opera: The Mikado' at Cranleigh Arts Centre

• Dates: 16 September
• Price: £21.50
• Book tickets

Whilst traditional opera may be an acquired taste, The Merry Opera Company is looking to break down some of those barriers to entry.

In operation for 15 years, these touring tenors are on a mission to show that opera can thrill, delight and devastate, without the price tag and prior knowledge of the story to truly grasp the premise of a scene.

The company are bringing their unique and quirky take on the savoy classic, The Mikado, to Cranleigh, filling it with their own particular brand of hilarity.

So, whether you’re entirely new to opera, have had some middling interest in checking it out, or are in fact an operatic connoisseur, The Mikado might be just the show for you!
