Our esteemed Artistic Director Ralph MacPhail, Jr., will share the history and fascinating stories behind the legendary Savoy Theatre, which was built to showcase the works of Gilbert and Sullivan. We will also be entertained by some of your favorite GSA performers singing songs that made the Savoy famous. This will be followed by the Austin debut of the one-act musical comedy Mr. Jericho, which premiered at the Savoy Theatre in 1893.

The McAdo
2020 Grand Production
June 12 - 21, 2020 - 9 Performances
It’s the show you love, in a brand new setting! The Mikado has been moved to the highlands of Scotland and becomes The McAdo. Gilbert’s libretto and Sullivan’s score will be kept virtually intact, while the scenery and costumes will reflect the Scottish moors. It’s a farcical tale of a wand’ring minstrel, a cowardly executioner, an iron-fisted ruler, and some of the greatest songs in musical theater!

#GivingTuesday is TODAY! It's a campaign that re-centers focus on generosity after commercial shopping days Black Friday and Cyber Monday. Please support Gilbert & Sullivan Austin.
Your donation will help us bring joy and music at our free musicales, and help us in our outreach to schools, senior centers, and other community activities. Also, even with large crowds, our summer grand production ticket income does not come close to covering expenses for a top-level production. It is important to us to keep our prices as reasonable as possible, especially for children and families, so it is imperative that we have donations to ensure a first-class show.
Please consider helping us. Give here bit.ly/34luF0E
