Description

​A group of college friends rent an old English country estate for Spring Break for an authentic Downton Abbey type of experience. As they all try to get some sleep on their first night, they are awakened by some singing ghosts. It turns out this house is haunted by W.S. Gilbert and Arthur Sullivan and all the actors who starred in their shows. What will they do? Will they perform an exorcism? Demand a refund? Or, will they be seduced into joining this merry band of ghosts by the infectiousness of these Gilbert and Sullivan tunes? DePauw Opera Guest stage director, Cara Consilvio, has created this unique and fun story that winds its way through 15 musical numbers from 7 different G&S masterpieces, all filled with that tunefulness and whimsy that is the hallmark of this English humorous style, which we are blending with our own!
