Absolutely hilarious! I remember when I was in The Mikado, every time KoKo (or any character really) mentioned 'The Mikado' the chorus, other characters, etc... would suddenly bow and say "Mikado!" So this reminded me of that. :) I love how Jon English hams this up.

If people think that this and other G&S operas were racist do not know what they are talking about in point of fact nearly all the operettas were a poke at the English society.

My god I can't believe I fond this on youtube! I used to be able to recite the whole thing practically.

Me too. And now I recite it to my 2 year old son to go to sleep, and he sings it too

Gilbert and Sullivan would appreciate the updated contemporary references, I'm sure. They were all about poking fun at the Poo-Bahs of their era, after all ,and we've more than enough Poo Bahs right now.

I got my dvd of this finally from australia. Took a month to get here, but worth the money and the time if anyone wants to know. Loved it!

Jon English just cannot catch a break with that conductor. :D Or with swords for that matter *ouch*

He merged to Pooh-Bah to give John English more "screentime". And in some dialogues that would require both of them was outsorced to the 3 maid...

Only in recent months have I finally clicked with the joke at 0:45.

Not being a fan of the updated G&S I do have to say this one is better than most---the only updates should be in the patter songs which are topical. When and where was this done? Surely better than most.

@BullseyeHun One could also argue that Pish-Tush isn't much of a 'character' - his main roles are to be the representative for the gentry, deliver information and serve as a third for Koko & Poobah in their trio. He doesn't really have a personality (unlike Poobah) and even seems to abandon his comrades when he's with the Mikado in the final scene. I do miss him a bit, though.

Funny and unique. So.... how do they do the trio "I Am So Proud" without a Pish-Tush?

It’s hard to explain. So Pish-Tush is out! Like they cut him out of the show, but I think he might be the person holding Poo Ba’s medals, so during I am so proud they had the 3 little maids from school. Let me explain, instead of having yum Yum be apart of the 3 little maids she is just one of them. There are sisters! The 3 sing Tush’s part in I am so proud

Yeah. I could easily imagine it. Not like Pish-Tush is that much of a character. If it weren't for the thing in 'I Am So Proud,' it wouldn't surprise me if productions cut the part entirely.

Funny scetch but the meaning of the song gets lost among the jokes, still an interesting take on a well known song. A ,Mikado virgin should not be watching this performance.

This is a bit too... overdone. The Stratford Festival version is better.
