Victorian Lyric Opera Company presents ‘The Brigands’
8 p.m. Sept. 2 and 3; 2 p.m. 2 p.m. Sept. 4.
Join a company of villainous bandits as they attempt to pull off their greatest heist yet — robbing a wealthy prince of his riches. But, in a society where inequality runs rampant, are we sure we know who the true villains are? W.S. Gilbert’s charming English translation of Offenbach’s classic operetta ably maintains the humor and gravitas of the original French setting.

Centering on fading stars of the 1950s, George and Charlotte Hay, and their one last shot at stardom. Frank Capra is coming to town to see their matinee, and if he likes what he sees, he might cast them in his remake of “The Scarlet Pimpernel.” Unfortunately for George and Charlotte, everything that could go wrong does go wrong, abetted by a visit from their daughter’s clueless fiancé and hilarious uncertainty about which play they’re actually performing.
