Description

Iolanthe is a sparkling tale of fairy folk and magical mayhem, a fable of fairies versus mortals!



Beloved and beautiful, the immortal Iolanthe has broken a fairy law by marrying a human. She is banished from fairyland by her Queen on the condition that she never sees her husband again.



Twenty five years later these two worlds collide, as her Son Strephon, (who is half a fairy), plans to marry the pretty Shepherdess Phyllis, a ward of The Lord Chancellor and loved by every Peer in The House of Lords.



Strephon attempts, (with the help of some feisty fairies), to overthrow the privileges enjoyed by the nobility, and much laughter, drama and mystical mix ups happen along the way!



Enchantingly funny and at times very moving, our talented cast along with our fabulous orchestra make this a family show not to be missed!
