A comedic romp set in the Irish countryside with redcoats, rebels, star-crossed lovers, charlatans, and the mysterious fairy Cleena! The Emerald Isle contains some of Sullivan’s most beautiful music as well as gorgeous contributions from Edward German (who completed the score following Sullivan’s death), with a libretto by Basil Hood.
Terence O’Brien, an Irish patriot, is in love with the Lady Rosie, daughter of the Lord Lieutenant, the agent of English oppression. Can the ‘Clan-na-Gael’ (society of Irish patriots) escape the attention of the Lieutenant, and is there any hope for the love of Terence and Rosie? Maybe … come to the show and find out!
