The Gondoliers
This 12th collaborative operetta by the beloved pair is set in Venice and is rife with nobility, mistaken identities, royalty, young lovers married to the wrong people, commoners, wit, patter, a Cachucha and of course, Rapture!
The Gondoliers tells the story of two charming Venetian gondoliers, who are informed that, due to an error of identity when they were young boys, one of them is the heir to the throne of Barataria. They are delighted with the situation and agree to share the responsibilities of governing their new kingdom until it can be ascertained which of them is the actual king. Matters are further complicated when the Duke and Duchess of Plaza Toro reveal that their beautiful daughter was married to the future king as an infant. The problem? The gondoliers are already married to Venetian commoners!
