Swashbuckling revival of Mike Leigh staging
The Guardian
|December 04, 2024
ENO has several times tried to attract another bolt of the Gilbert and Sullivan lightning that brought the company Jonathan Miller's hit 1986 production of The Mikado.
Mike Leigh's 2015 staging of The Pirates of Penzance was one of the more serviceable attempts; his first go at opera and his first time working fully within the confines of a script, the result was a bit more trad and less edgy than the company was probably hoping for. Yet it comes up well in this lively revival, directed again by Sarah Tipple and conducted this time by Natalie Murray Beale.
