The large cast of costumed singers will perform the most popular of the Gilbert and Sullivan operettas, in an unstaged concert version of the musical comedy classic at the Community Church of Vero Beach.

The libretto will be projected onto a screen behind the singers in both English and Japanese. $25 advance tickets for adults are available through the orchestra website at www.SpaceCoastSymphony.org or at the orchestra’s official ticket outlet, Marine Bank & Trust, beachside and mainland branches.
