We are ‘happy as happy can be, tra-la’ to report that the current production, musically, is right up to Troupers’ high standards.

If any special G&S musical cam be called most tuneful, ‘The Gondoliers’ is it, and Murray Linden conducted the large orchestra, as well as the entire performance, for top-notch artistry and enjoyment.
