Gilbert and Sullivan's London - Hardcover
A guide book with a difference, for the Gilbert & Sullivan enthusiast as well as the general reader. By moving in & around London, backwards & forwards in time, Goodman unfolds the story of the most astonishing partnership in the history of British musical entertainment against the authentic background of the era in which it flourished. With much original research & many hitherto unpublished illustrations, Goodman makes an invaluable contribution to our knowledge & appreciation of Gilbert & Sullivan. This book summons up a bygone era, recalling the lost grandeur of London s great entertainment palaces, its atmospheric streetlife & nightlife, its splendor & its squalor. Includes a new Foreword by acclaimed film-maker Mike Leigh.
