EDITORS COMMENTS
Their Eyes Met: A Moment of Romantic Revelation in 'The Mikado' by W.S. Gilbert and Arthur Sullivan (1921) In this image from the 1921 production of 'The Mikado,' the eyes of Nanki Poo (played by the renowned American actor, Alfred Drake) and Yum-Yum (portrayed by the talented Alice Woodward) meet for the first time, igniting a spark of love and attraction in the heart of the Japanese village. The operetta, a beloved masterpiece of the early 20th century, was written by W.S. Gilbert and Arthur Sullivan and set in the exotic and fantastical world of Japan. The scene takes place during a wet and rainy night, with the characters donning vibrant and intricately designed Eastern costumes that transport the audience to the far-off land of the Mikado. The raindrops glisten on the stage, adding to the enchanting and romantic atmosphere. Nanki Poo, disguised as a wandering minstrel, has come to the village to seek the hand of Yum-Yum, who is betrothed to another man. Their eyes meet, and in that moment, the stage is set for a tale of love, courtship, and the complexities of human emotion. Alice Woodward, an accomplished actress and singer, brings Yum-Yum to life with her grace and charm, while Alfred Drake's portrayal of Nanki Poo exudes both vulnerability and determination. The chemistry between the two actors is palpable, making this moment a standout in the production and a testament to the enduring power of love and the human spirit.
