The problem? Bunthorne\u2019s artistic ways are all just an act to attract women to him\u2013he doesn\u2019t even like poetry! Besides, Patience is in love with her childhood sweetheart, who happens to be a real poet named Archibald Grosvenor, but feels she cannot marry him because he is just too perfect. In the meantime, the serious (and decidedly non-poetic) platoon of Heavy Dragoon Guards that were meant to marry the village maidens find themselves dismayed and perplexed by their sudden loss of prospects. One of Gilbert &amp; Sullivan\u2019s most successful shows, Patience is a rollicking satire that pits the straight-laced ideals of the Victorian era against the passions and indulgences of the 1870s Aesthetic Movement, ridiculing each side of the spectrum.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"flex_column av_one_full  flex_column_div first  avia-builder-el-14  el_after_av_one_half  avia-builder-el-last  column-top-margin\" ><section class=\"av_textblock_section \"  itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div class='avia_textblock  '   itemprop=\"text\" ><h2><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff; text-decoration: underline;\" title=\"G&amp;S Junior Theatre School\" href=\"http:\/\/www.morpheustheatre.ca\/?page_id=17\">Morpheus G&amp;S Junior Theatre School Program<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Morpheus Theatre is pleased to announce that the G&amp;S Junior Theatre School program is returning for it\u2019s 14th Season!<\/p>\n<p>Junior Class: ages 9 to 12 years Senior Class: ages 13 to 17 years<br \/>\nRegistration opens to new students June 1st<\/p>\n<p>Both classes will run Saturday mornings from 10:00-11:30 beginning in mid-October.
