Gilbert & Sullivan’s topsy-turvy world opens this season of the Choral Arts Society. Trial by Jury, a hilarious 1875 satire of the British legal system, is one of Gilbert & Sullivan’s earliest and most ingenious collaborations. Gilbert’s clever satirical wit and Sullivan’s delightful tunes are on full display. A jilted bride, a disingenuous groom, an opportunistic old judge, and a love-tainted jury, culminate in an absurd surprise ending including two celebrity walk-ons! Celebrate the 175th anniversary of Arthur Sullivan’s birth in Racine’s beautifully restored historic City Council Chambers.
