The Opera will also add a traditionally popular Sunday afternoon matinee to the season as well as presenting a new Canadian series of two new second stage productions.

- The guy with the 'long, red fingernails' and other tales from The Mikado
The Edmonton Journal previews Edmonton Opera's production of The Mikado.
Edmonton Opera presents the screening of Topsy-Turvy Monday, January 30 at Metro Cinema at the Garneau. Come join us for this film depicting the often topsy-turvy relationship of composer Arthur Sullivan and librettist W.S Gilbert who collaborated on fourteen comic operas in late 19th century England. Beginning with a modest start, the duo struggled to work together until a visit to a Japanese exhibit in London inspired one of their greatest successes, The Mikado. We invite you to join Edmonton Opera for this fun-filled musical drama!
Starts at 6:40 pm, January 30. Adults $10, students $8. Metro Cinema at the Garneau at 8712 109 St.
