On Friday I’ll be going to watch an opera at Victoria Theatre (if work allows, sigh), and found this lovely piece of trivia:
The first performance to be staged in the newly completed Victoria Theatre was Sirs Arthur S. Sullivan and William S. Gilbert’s well-known comic opera, The Pirates of Penzance, performed by the Singapore Amateur Dramatic Committee in 1909.
