Kanthor Collection of Gilbert and Sullivan, Date Span, Rare Books, Special Collections, and Preservation Department, University of Rochester. ^ Return to Table of Contents Biographical / Historical The fourteen comic operas of Gilbert and Sullivan were originally produced between 1871 and 1896 in London. They were immediately successful throughout England and were equally popular in America and throughout the English speaking world. They are considered masterpieces of the Victorian age and are still performed regularly and widely appreciated. In this country, the best known of their works are The Mikado, H.M.S. Pinafore and The Pirates of Penzance. By the time Gilbert and Sullivan first collaborated, each was already well known to the British public. W.S. Gilbert (1836-1911) was known as a writer and artist for comic periodicals, and his early theatrical pieces were successes. He was the pre-eminent dramatist of the 1870 s at the same time he began his collaboration with Sullivan. Arthur Sullivan (1842-1900) was already a well-known musician by the time he met Gilbert. His musical gifts were established early, and he had already composed popular drawing room songs as well religious anthems, orchestral compositions and choral music. The collaboration of W.S. Gilbert and Arthur Sullivan was made possible by their third partner, manager and impresario, Richard D Oyly Carte 1844-1900) who brought them together in 1875 and contracted with them to write their comic operas until their final work together in 1896. Carte set high production standards and, in 1881, he built the Savoy Theatre in London expressly for their operas. The Savoy would henceforth be associated with Gilbert and Sullivan and their operas would be known as the - Page 3-
Savoy Operas. D Oyly Carte s Opera Company continued to regularly perform these works until 1982. The D Oyly Carte productions were considered traditional as they carried on much of the original staging as directed by Gilbert. Gilbert and Sullivan operas remained under copyright until 1961. Since that year, directors have adapted their work in more innovative and conceptual productions. ^ Return to Table of Contents The posters in the Harold A. Kanthor Collection of Gilbert and Sullivan are a diverse group printed in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, and represent advertisements for specific productions or theatrical companies. They provide a varied range of graphic design as well as a historical context for understanding the theatrical evolution of Gilbert and Sullivan productions. The posters are subdivided by specific operas, with three categories repeated throughout each opera designation: Production, Adaptation, and Film. Within each designation, posters are described in chronological order. Posters for specific operas are followed by posters generically produced for the D Oyly Carte Company, posters for non-theatrical advertising, posters for films not produced for specific operas, and posters for other types of productions. ^ Return to Table of Contents Arrangement The posters are arranged in numerical order using a unique identifier. ^ Return to Table of Contents Administrative Information Publication Statement Department of Rare Books, Special Collections, and Preservation Rush Rhees Library Second Floor, Room 225 Rochester, NY 14627-0055 rarebks@library.rochester.edu - Page 4-
