UNM alumnus James Mills returns to the Popejoy stage in this boisterous performance.

The captain’s daughter has caught the eyes — and hearts — of two men at once: a lowly sailor and the pompous Sir Joseph Porter. Only a bumbling dockside vendor named Little Buttercup can unravel the mess where mistaken identities and mismatched marriages abound. With its infectious tunes and rousing finale, all performed by the New York Gilbert and Sullivan Players, it’s no wonder this classic comedy still makes a splash!
