THE M.A.K.A.DO:
Make America Kingly Again!
An Operatico-Politco-Buffo-Satirico…
Based on The Mikado by Gilbert and Sullivan
New English texts by Bari Biern
From IN Series
Written as a witty, political and social indictment of the Victorian British establishment, this tuneful satire has been absent from many stages over the last few decades due to claims of political-correctness. As IN Series lampoons all forms of tyranny, from would be kings to cancel culture itself, THE MAKADO: Make America Kingly Again! An Operatico-Politico-Buffo-Satirico reimagines the iconic musical spoof as set in a great golden gilded oval office, with a cast of all too familiar characters that take no prisoners as they delight audiences and poke fun at fools from all sides. With added strains of John Phillip Sousa, new rhymes from THE CAPITOL STEPS veteran writer Bari Biern, and over-the-top costumes, sets, and comedy. THE MAKADO uses laughter and music to say what no one is saying but we’ve all been thinking…
