Preston Gilbert and Sullivan Society present

The Sorcerer

A comic operetta by W.S. Gilbert and Arthur Sullivan After the early and resounding success of their one-act opera Trial By Jury in 1875, Gilbert and Sullivan, and their producer Richard D’Oyly Carte, decided to produce a full-length work.

Gilbert expanded on one of his earlier writings based on a favourite operatic theme to create a plot about a magic love portion that would result in everyone falling in love with the wrong partner.
