The New Comic Opera.

The New Comic Opera.
From the Home Journal
In "IOlanthe; or, the Peer and the PERI" Gil
bert and Sullivan's new opera, which is to be
produced on Saturday evening, November %, at
the Standard Theater, New York, Mr. Gilbert
satirizes the 'red tape" Formally Of official rank
and the antiquated forms of procedure under
the English law, going for Illustrations to the
house of lords. The lord chancellor, the chief
of the English bench, surrounded by knights of
the garter. the BATH the thistle, and other or
ders of nobility discuss with formal ceremony
the question as to whether he. the lord chancel-
lor, having fallen in love with the maiden Phyllis,
his ward in chancery, lean legally give his own
consent to his own marriage to his own ward;
or. II he marry without this consent, can he COM
NIT himself for contempt of his own court. and
himself and move for arrest of his own jndg-
ment!" In addition, Mr.. Gilbert has brought in
new and whimsical fancy in heintrOduction of
fairies, one of whom-Iolantte-gve the title
to the opera. The contrast between the sylvan
fairies and the pOmpOus peers serves to make
abundant opportunity for Mr.. Giibert's facile
pen. An examination of the score shows that
Mr.. Sullivan has written some of his best music
There are number of airs which will become as
popular as any previous work OF the composer,
and at the conclusion Of the first act, when q
military band is introduced on the stage in uni
form, the effect will be marked. There are some
very well written arias for the principals The
costumes will be the exact copies in every de-
tail of the official robes worn by the House of
Lords. The other dresses have been designed
by Mr. Gilbert, and made under his personal di-
rectfon A novel feature Of the mise en- scene
is the lake upon the stage, through which Iolan-
the rises. The second act is a picture of the ex-
terror Of the House of Parliament, Westminster
Abbey and the Thames embankment. The mu-
sic will remain unpubishedfOr the present.
