About the author

W. S. (William Schwenck) Gilbert

1836–1911

Best known as the witty lyricist behind the comic operas of Gilbert and Sullivan, he helped shape Victorian musical theatre with sharp satire, absurd plots, and a wonderfully precise ear for language. His work still feels lively thanks to its mix of elegance, mischief, and memorable songs.
