Written by Ian Taylor, the musical chronicles the famous duo’s often tempestuous professional relationship.
The pair collaborated for 14 comic operas, and excerpts from many of these appear in the play, including ‘The Mikado’, ‘Pirates of Penzance’, and more.
Greg Taylor will direct and the Macleay Choral Society, under the expert tutelage of Christine Wells, will act as the chorus.
Performance dates are August 18,19, 20, 25, 26 and 27. Show times are 8pm on Friday and Saturday nights, and 2pm for the Sunday presentations.
