Welcome to Castle Adamant, where women are fabulous, men are forbidden, and comic conspiracies reign supreme. As a baby, Princess Ida was betrothed to Prince Hilarion—but the honeymoon was over before it ever started. Now all grown up, the Princess has sworn off men, opening an all-women college at the Castle in order to prove the superiority of her sex. But no moat can keep the Prince and his men from breeching these walls. It could be love. It could be war.It’s definitely a castle-crashing, cross-dressing, toe-tapping laugh riot.

The Gilbert & Sullivan Society of Houston presents Princess Ida, a comic opera in three acts, July 22-31 at the Wortham Center in downtown Houston. Performances are Friday and Saturday at 8pm, and Sunday at 2:30pm. Tickets are $28 to $53, and are available at http://hgns.org/tickets
