The D'Oyly Carte Opera Company is a professional British light opera company that, from the 1870s until 1982, staged Gilbert and Sullivan 's Savoy operas nearly year-round in the UK and sometimes toured in Europe, North America and elsewhere.
This site is a tribute to the nearly 3,000 performers who appeared on stage with the D'Oyly Carte or conducted their orchestras for those 107 years. I have tried to document each named part played by each artist and to accurately trace their periods of service and the companies within the D'Oyly Carte organization with which each artist appeared.
