The Mikado Tickets

The English National Opera's The Mikado tickets available now at affordable prices!

This magnificent production presents the topsy-turvy story by Arthur Sullivan and W.S.Gilbert. Tickets for The Mikado at the London Coliseum aren’t just Titipu’s finest, but the finest in the West End when it comes to comic operas.   

The Mikado focuses on the unfolding love story between Nanki-Poo and Yum-Yum. However, early obstacles stand in their way, as Yum-Yum is already betrothed to the new Lord High Executioner, Ko-Ko. After the Mikado orders a beheading, Nanki-Poo and Ko-Ko come together in order to settle on an arrangement in which no one has to lose their heads!

ENO brings The Mikado back to the Coliseum in London

Sullivan’s comic opera is bursting with memorable melodies, the most renowned moment being the ‘little list’ song by Ko-Ko, the Lord High Executioner. It is considered a topical highlight of Jonathan Miller’s astounding inventive production. This ENO production of The Mikado is sung in English with surtitles projected above the stage during most performances.

Baritone Richard Suart (Zeta in The Merry Widow) will be returning to the role he has made his own, the scheming Ko-Ko. Joining him in the role of Pooh-Bah is Baritone Andrew Shore (Baron Zeta in The Merry Widow). Sir John Tomlinson (Boris Ismailov in Lady Macbeth of Mtsensk) will join the cast as the oversized Mikado.

The two romantic leads of Nanki-Poo and Yum-Yum are played by two ENO Harewood Artists, Soraya Mafi and Elgan Llŷr Thomas.

ENO Gala Performance The Mikado Opening Night

Opening night of The Mikado is also the ENO's annual Gala performance.
