Got to see a very fun performance of the play/musical?/light opera "Iolanthe" over the weekend! Got to do some figure sketches while watching too!

Ok, Iolanthe BUT the fairies are all Morris dancers, and Strephon is a Morris dancer. Introduce a Morris side that don't sing but they do a bit of dancing. During Tripping Hither Tripping Thither, dance Ilmington (or something similarly regal) before switching to Bledington at THAT bit.
I have a vision. Now I just need enough Morris dancers and an opera company crazy enough to listen to me.

I generally don't like "misunderstanding plots" where the (often) girlfriend/fiance of the protagonist sees him with another woman and assumes that there's an affair going on.
That said, Iolanthe has a fun one that doesn't make me want to punch any sort of wall. Strephon (25M) is caught cuddling with his mother, Iolanthe (??F), who looks like she's 17. And it is a meaningfully hard-to-beat case of "it's not what it looks like!" and I don't mind at all Phyllis not believing him.
And then the play ends with this glorious line:
Strephon.Β You know, my grandmother looks quite as young as my mother. So do all my aunts.
Phyllis.Β I quite understand. Whenever I see you kissing a very young lady, I shall know itβs an elderly relative.
Strephon.Β You will? Then, Phyllis, I think we shall be very happy!
