A Comic Operetta by Gilbert and Sullivan
or The King of Barataria
This opera opened December 7, 1889 at the Savoy Theatre and ran for 554 performances.
One of two just-married gondoliers is the King of Barataria, but no one knows which one. As Barataria needs a king to put down unrest in the country, they travel there to reign jointly, leaving their wives behind. A fine romp, with lots of bright music and dancing.
