Utopia Limited, Paperback / softback Book

Utopia Limited Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Utopia Limited (or The Flowers of Progress), is the second-to-last of Gilbert and Sullivan's fourteen collaborations.

Gilbert's libretto satirises limited liability companies, and particularly the idea that a bankrupt company could leave creditors unpaid without any liability to its owners.

The subject-matter and characters, including the specific government offices, are obscure for modern audiences, although its themes of corporatisation of public institutions and scandal in the British Royal family remain relevant.
