Gilbert & Sullivan Society of Maine Presents: Princess Ida

Gilbert & Sullivan Society of Maine presents: Princess Ida

On the Stanley Subaru Stage

Fridays, 7:00pm, Saturdays & Sundays, 2:00pm

Princess Ida has rejected the rule of men, and the marriage contract forced upon her in infancy. But when the time comes to fulfill it, her defiance may spark a war. When Ida fails to appear for the long-promised wedding, her determined suitor, Hilarion, disguises himself and his companions as women and infiltrates Castle Adamant, a university devoted entirely to women. Once their deception is exposed, Ida and her peers face an impossible choice: should she surrender her ideals and accept Hilarion’s devotion, or stand firm and risk war between two stubborn kings—and the destruction of the university she loves?

$20 Adults, $12 Students, $8 Youth (12&under) General Admission

When: March 6, 2026 7:00PM - 9:15PM
Where: The Grand
