Hot Mikado is a musical comedy based on Gilbert and Sullivan's 1885 comic opera 'The Mikado'. In the 1980s, Bell and Bowman readapted the musical from its original 1939 incarnation. It was then produced in its new form in 1987 before again being revived in London's West End in 1995. The story is set in 1940s Japan where flirting is punishable by death. The 2009 T.A.O.D.S production of Hot Mikado ran between the 22nd and 26th of September and was directed by Trevor Hitchens, who is well known for his original twists on well established shows.
