The Mikado, or The Town of Titipu, is a comic opera in two acts, with music by Arthur Sullivan and libretto by W. S. Gilbert. It opened on March 14, 1885, in London, where it ran at the Savoy Theatre for 672 performances. Before the end of 1885 it was estimated that, in Europe and America, at least 150 companies were producing the opera. It remains the most frequently performed Savoy Opera, and it is especially popular with amateur school productions. Indeed, The Mikado is possibly the most frequently played piece of musical theatre in history. This was the ninth operatic collaboration between Gilbert and Sullivan.Setting the opera in Japan, an exotic locale far away from England, allowed Gilbert to more freely satirize English politics and institutions by disguising them as Japanese. Gilbert used foreign locales in several operas, including The Mikado, The Gondoliers, Utopia Limited, The Grand Duke and Princess Ida, to soften the impact of his pointed satire of British institutions. To the extent that the opera is inspired by, and purports to portray, Japanese culture, design and govenment, it draws on Victorian notions of the subject, gleaned mostly from the popular Japanese exhibition of the time in Knightsbridge, near London, and the general British fascination with Japanese fashion and art that immediately followed the beginning of trade between the two island empires. The song "Miya sama", however, is a version of an actual Japanese song which Sullivan appropriated for the operetta. The same melody was also adapted by Giacomo Puccini in Madama Butterfly.It is also worth noting that many of the names in the play are unpronounceable in standard Japanese – but perfectly understandable as English "baby-talk". The headsman is named Ko-Ko; one pretty young thing is named Pitti-Sing; and the heroine is named Yum-Yum. The pompous officials are Pooh-Bah and Pish-Tush; and our hero, Nanki-Poo (which might be baby-talk for "handkerchief") is fleeing from the awful Katisha.//Gilbert and Sullivan were considered to be in a bit of a slump at the time they wrote The Mikado. Their previous opera, Princess Ida, had run for nine months – a short duration by their own standards. For the first time in their partnership, there was no new opera ready when it closed. A revised version of The Sorcerer, coupled with Trial by Jury, played at the Savoy while they prepared their next work
