The Mikado

This classic comic operetta tells the story of Nanki-Poo, son of the Mikado of Japan, who escapes the court to avert marriage to the elderly Katisha. Disguised as a rhythm guitarist, he falls in love with Yum-Yum, who is betrothed to a tailor named Ko-Ko. With a chorus of Japanese businessmen and anime schoolgirls, this updated re-telling of The Mikado is surefire crowd-pleaser.
