Coming Soon to the F. Scott Fitzgerald Theatre...A double-bill of Gilbert & Sullivan's The Sorcerer and Trial by Jury!

Come see directors Ali & Pete Oliver-Krueger's contemporary take on two of the earliest extant collaborations of Gilbert’s acute wit and Sullivan’s glorious music.

In The Sorcerer, two lovers who see each other through the eyes of young love wreak havoc in their little village through their youthful idealism and naivete. What if everything Alexis says and does is motivated by the bone deep conviction that Aline-sweet, rich, beautiful, beloved Aline-is way out of his league? What would Alexis be willing to do, to try, if it meant he could avoid losing Aline? Enter John Wellington Wells, a dealer in magic and spells...

In Trial By Jury, a sensational (and hilarious) breach-of-promise case culminates in that rarest of outcomes – everyone is satisfied!

Performances June 8, 9, 15, and 16 at 8:00 pm and June 10 and 17 at 2:00 pm. $10 preview on Thursday, June 7 at 8:00 pm.

History of the company

The Victorian Lyric Opera Company was founded in 1978 to perform musical works of the Victorian era. Their first show was Trial By Jury paired with Cox and Box. Since that time they have performed all but two of the Gilbert & Sullivan canon many times over. They have also branched out into other European operettas and even grand opera, Mozart's The Magic Flute & Donezetti's The Elixir of Love. The mission of the company has been and continues to be to provide high quality performances of light operatic works, providing educational and performance opportunities to our community. In 2011, The Victorian Lyric Opera Company merged with The Forgotten Opera Company.

Our membership is drawn from all over the Greater Washington Metropolitan area. We have performers of all ages in our company, and often will have multiple generations of the same family on stage at the same time.
