The Mikado, musical. Japanese nobles meet a wandering minstrel named Nanki-Poo. He tells them of his love for Yum-Yum whom he first saw as he was playing in the Titipu town band.

The topsy-turvy carryings on involve a wandering minstrel, a Lord High Executioner, a Lord High Everything Else, three little maids from school, a yumyummish heroine, a timidly bloodthirsty tyrant, a dragon lady whose bark is worse than her bite, and some of the wackiest and most athletic gentlemen the stage has ever seen.
