On to The Mikado!

We're pleased to announce our fabulous cast for our July 2012 production of Gilbert & Sullivan's The Mikado!

Stage Director Jim Harp and Musical Director Phil Collister have assembled a fantastic, talented cast, including Young Vic veterans such as Jenni Bank, Jason Buckwalter and Jarrod Lee, and tremendously talented newcomers such as Peter Tomaszewski, Jason Lee and Melissa Mino.

Our singing actors have wide credits already in the world of opera and musical theater, and we think you'll love them all! For a complete cast list and biographies, select this link or visit our Current Season "Meet the Cast" page (see above)!

Of course we're still filling chorus, extra and production roles. So, if you are interested in being a part of what we hope is a historic production of one of the greatest works of all musical theater, please visit our AUDITIONS page and contact Jim Harp!

On-Line Ticket Sales Are Back!

We Look Back Fondly on Yeomen!

Audiences wept and applauded as the Young Vic concluded its 2011 run of The Yeomen of the Guard, Gilbert & Sullivan’s tragic masterpiece and perhaps most beloved operetta, with a matinee performance on Sunday, July 17, 2011.

This haunting, heartbreaking tale of mistaken identity and unrequited love features one of Sullivan’s most beautiful scores, plus the only tragic ending in the entire repertoire.

To read Tim Smith's review of the production, select this link. Smith says "You can get a good sense of Yeomen's worth in a new production from the Young Victorian Theatre Company, Baltimore's indomitable keeper of the G&S flame . . . The music is especially well-served in this staging, which features traditional costumes and a pleasant, economical set."

As we bid farewell to our cast, we are pleased to present here a few photos from the just-concluded production. We are preparing a complete archive, which will show the complete story of our Yeomen production in photographs, include the official program, and more information on the show. Please check back soon to see it!

This will be the first in what we intend to be a permanent on-line archive of the Young Vic's productions.

But time moves on, and now — on to The Mikado!
