Perhaps one of the most engaging and exciting works, it is much loved for both its fascinating music and witty lyrics. This work is one of the finest and most operatic scores Sullivan wrote featuring magnificent choruses, spritely patter songs, spectacular arias, and possibly one of the most exquisite duets of all, "I have a song to sing, O!"</p> <p>The show, set in the Tower of London in the reign of Henry VIII, tells the story of Colonel Fairfax, under the sentence of death upon false charges, wanting to marry before he is executed, so that his cousins who pressed these charges would not inherit his estate. Jack Point, a travelling player, agrees to allow his fiancée, Elsie Maynard, to be Fairfax’s wife, allowing Elsie to be a very wealthy widow within hours. However, Fairfax’s friends spring him from the Tower, leaving Fairfax alive with Elsie being more married than she was expecting, and Jack’s future wife being married to someone else! Jack tries all contrivances to win back Elsie, but will all his endeavours be in vain?</p> <p>Further information about the play can be found at <a href="http://math.boisestate.edu/gas/yeomen/html/index.html." rel="nofollow">http://math.boisestate.edu/gas/yeomen/html/index.html.</a> </p> <p>To apply, please email Frank DiTraglia &lt;fditraglia@gmail.com&gt; by midnight Sunday 14th November, with including a brief description of relevant experience.
