8 p.m. Aug. 16, 22-24, 28, 30-31; 2 p.m., 8 p.m. Aug. 17. Pacific Opera Project (POP) adds some of its signature twists to Gilbert & Sullivan’s most popular operetta. This vibrant production utilizes Harajuku costumes (inspired by the district of Tokyo famous for its wild mix of colors and styles), intricate choreography, and zany antics. While the original lyrics took thinly-veiled jabs at British nobility and politics, this reworked libretto now pokes fun at current people and issues. This reprise of POP’s highly acclaimed 2013 production should be suitable for all ages.
