Start time: 19:30 Gilbert and Sullivan’s most enduring masterpiece returns to Eastbourne. Gilbert & Sullivan’s most enduring masterpiece, The Mikado, returns to Eastbourne in a vibrant production that will delight lifelong fans and newcomers alike. Experience the familiar story, songs, and characters exactly as you remember them, now set against the beautiful backdrop of a rugged Scottish landscape. While Gilbert famously used a fictionalised Japan to poke fun at British society, this production—affectionately known as The McAdo—celebrates that same satirical spirit in a charming Celtic setting. In a town where flirting is a capital offence, the local executioner is in over his head. The chaos begins when a wandering minstrel with a dangerous secret arrives in search of his true love, only to find himself entangled in a web of absurd laws and paradoxical logic. When the fearsome ruler demands a head must roll, the town is plunged into a hilarious world of bureaucratic blunders, jealous rivals, and classic comedic twists.
