Broadway Meets Gilbert & Sullivan at the Darien
Art Center'  Cabaret Theatre

The Darien Arts Center’s Cabaret Theatre will present the immensely funny, and very entertaining, “I’ve Got A Little Twist,” by the Gilbert & Sullivan Players for one-night only, Saturday, October 15, at 8 p.m. The performance will take
place in the DAC Weatherstone Studio located in the rear of the Darien Town   Hall, 2  Renshaw Road, Darien.

Take Gilbert & Sullivan, add a twist of Broadway and stir. What do you get? A delicious mixture of “The Mikado” meets “The Music Man.” Where the “HMS Pinafore” sets sail for “Brigadoon.” Where “The Pirates of Penzance” take shore leave “On the Town.”  It’s “I’ve Got a Little Twist,” a one-of-a-kind show that proves the Gilbert & Sullivan
repertoire is as fun, fresh, and full-of-life as, well, three little maids from school!

See for yourself as New York Gilbert & Sullivan Players celebrates the legacy of Gilbert & Sullivan in American musical theater, featuring favorites from Rodgers &
Hammerstein, Bernstein, Sondheim, Lerner & Lowe, Meredith Willson, and Jerry Herman. Life is a cabaret and so is this show. And, as we all know, it’s always more entertaining when you add a little twist.
