The purpose of this “not for profit” project is to ensure that personal memories of the D’Oyly Carte Opera Company are not forgotten or lost.

A number of wonderful photographs have been used to illustrate the points being discussed. I give a massive thank you to all the photographers, both known and unknown.

This presentation contains images from The D’Oyly Carte production of The Mikado, showing characters in ethnic make-up and costume.
