Gilbert and Sullivan

The English have a love affair with G&S comic opera. These were written in Victorian times. 

Until Covid-19 times a local group performed every year in a local barn. I hope this returns next year (2022). It was part of our year.

Gilbert and Sullivan

Gilbert and Sullivan - NOT amateur radio
