Pimlico Opera has been in prison for 40 years.

For these large scale productions we transform the gym into a theatre with a full lighting rig, a set and live orchestra.

After a month of full-time rehearsal, the prisoners perform alongside professionals for an evening of entanglements you won’t forget. Matchmaker Dolly Gallagher Levi is entangled with half-millionaire Horace Vandergelder. His two clerks, Cornelius and Barnaby sneak off work to become entangled with some shopgirls and everyone collides in the Harmonia Gardens restaurant.

The show was one of the most iconic Broadway shows of the 1960s and ran for 2,844 performances.
