product description
Winner of the New York Film Critics Best Picture and Best Director awards, and Oscar® winner for costme design and make-up, Topsy Turvy combines all the elements of wonderful entertainment: Egos, Music, Women and Scandal.
For nearly a decade, Gilbert & Sullivan's collaborations have delighted and entertained the English people, but Sullivan have become disillusioned and longs to create more "serious" music. The two reach a creative impasse, barely able to agree on anything.
It's only when Gilbert's wife drags him out to a Japanese exhibition that the exposure to a different culture sparks the inspiration for what will become one of their biggest successes, The Mikado.
