As a child, Casilda is married to Barataria's future king, yet when she returns as an adult, her husband is nowhere to be found. The heir has been living in hiding with his true parentage forgotten. Marco and Giuseppe are two gondoliers eager to choose their respective brides. Their plans are disrupted when they learn one of them is already married. Years ago, the heir of Barataria was secretly wed to an infant girl called Casilda. Now a woman, Casilda has been named queen but is without her king. Unfortunately, the true heir was taken from his royal home and raised in secret. Both gondoliers fit the description, but only one can ascend to the throne. The Gondoliers, also known as The King of Barataria, is one of Gilbert and Sullivan's most successful collaborations. It's a humorous story with fairy tale elements and topical themes such as identity, honor and duty. With an eye-catching new cover, and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of The Gondoliers is both modern and readable.

W. S. Gilbert (1836–1911) and Arthur Sullivan (1842–1900) were theatrical collaborators during the nineteenth century. Prior to their partnership, Gilbert wrote and illustrated stories as a child, eventually developing his signature “topsy-turvy" style. Sullivan was raised in a musical family where he learned to play multiple instruments at an early age. Together, their talents would help produce a successful series of comic operas. Some notable titles include The Pirates of Penzance, The Sorcerer, H.M.S. Pinafore, and The Mikado. W. S.
