“The flowers that bloom in the spring, tra-la…”
Presented in partnership with the Japan America Society of Greater Philadelphia and the Japanese American Citizens League, The Savoy Company’s 2025 production of The Mikado provides an opportunity for audiences to enjoy this masterwork of comedic and musical genius through the groovy lens of the 1960s.
By updating makeup, costumes, staging, and portions of the libretto with aesthetics and terminology that reflect a more modern feel, this topsy-turvy production is sure to fill every heart with joy.
There will also be several JASGP members performing in the productions: JASGP Board Member, Mirai Yasuyama, will be performing the koto in all performances, as well as appearing as a panelist for the May 9th performance. Additionally, JASGP members Fumiyo Batta will appear as a panelist for the 30th, and Yuka Usami for the 31st. Members of Kyodaiko, the region’s longest-running Japanese drumming group and longtime partners of JASGP, will also be featured in the performances.
