Pish, Tush, Run, Him Off: A Delightful Scene from The Mikado by W.S. Gilbert and Arthur Sullivan, 1921 This enchanting photograph print, taken in 1921, captures a lively moment from the classic operetta, The Mikado, by W.S. Gilbert and Arthur Sullivan. In this scene, titled "Pish, Tush, Run, Him Off," we witness the comical pursuit of the mischievous character, Pish-Tush, by the townspeople of Titipu. Pish-Tush, a member of the Mikado's court, is known for his lazy and carefree demeanor. In this scene, he has been caught in a compromising position with the beautiful Yum-Yum, much to the disapproval of her guardian, Ko-Ko, the Lord High Executioner. In an attempt to escape the wrath of Ko-Ko and the townspeople, Pish-Tush flees, only to be relentlessly chased and taunted with the catchy phrase, "Pish, tush, run, him off!" The photograph beautifully illustrates the vibrant costumes and the lively energy of the production. Alice Woodward, a renowned English actress, portrays the playful and determined Yum-Yum, while the other actors skillfully capture the humor and excitement of the chase. The intricate details of their Eastern-inspired costumes, complete with colorful patterns and ornate headpieces, add to the exotic and whimsical atmosphere of the scene. This photograph is a captivating glimpse into the world of The Mikado, a timeless piece of musical theater that continues to enchant audiences with its witty lyrics, memorable melodies, and delightful characters. The image, taken in the 1920s, offers a fascinating look into the rich history of this beloved operetta and the theatrical traditions of the early 20th century.
