Step into the world of Gilbert & Sullivan
If you’re the model of a modern major general, three little maids from school or just someone with a love of all things Gilbert and Sullivan, this four-night special interest holiday is for you. The International Gilbert & Sullivan Festival was established in 1994 and in the ensuing years performing groups and fans have come from all over the world to attend and take part. At its heart is a competition, with amateur Gilbert & Sullivan performing companies showcasing their productions and competing for the coveted trophy.
Staying at the Crowne Plaza Royal Victoria Hotel (4Q) in Sheffield, you have an opportunity to immerse yourself in the festivities, enjoying three operetta performances preceded by interesting lectures by your hosts Matthew Craven and Judith Buckle.

Patience
The well-born young ladies of the village, caught up in the fad of aestheticism, are infatuated with two contrasting aesthetic poets, but they are both in love with Patience, the simple village milkmaid, who cares nothing for poetry. You and Patience can learn the secret of true love and the point of aestheticism - if there is one...
