Young Vic is Baltimore’s Gilbert & Sullivan Company.
Located in Roland Park, the Young Victorian Theatre Company presents professional caliber musical theatre productions every summer for all ages to enjoy the timeless works of Gilbert & Sullivan.
In the Tower of London, an innocent Colonel Fairfax awaits execution. To avoid leaving his estate to his wicked cousin (and false accuser), Fairfax secretly weds a strolling singer, Elsie Maynard. Her performing partner, the jester Jack Point, loves Elsie but goes along with the ploy knowing that she’ll be a widow within the hour. Then a rapid turn of events sets up a series of plot twists and fate is fooled for all involved. Accompanied by a truly majestic score, The Yeomen of the Guard is Gilbert & Sullivan’s most poignant and moving work.
Watch The Yeomen of the Guard at home on your computer, tablet or other streaming device. The livestream is set for Saturday July 19, with an on-demand version available for a limited time after the live event. Instructions on accessing the livestream will be emailed upon purchase.

Young Vic is Baltimore's Gilbert & Sullivan company. We began in 1971 as an enthusiastic group of high school students and have evolved into an acclaimed and full-fledged performing arts organization today.
Our professional-caliber productions attract a wide range of promising young talent and accomplished performers. Members of our casts and orchestra have performed on local, national and international stages.
Now in our sixth decade, Young Vic's fiscal responsibility, stable leadership and artistic excellence makes it Baltimore's longest tenured musical theatre and is well supported by the community.
Our mission is to expose Baltimore’s diverse community to distinctive and entertaining musical theatre; foster classically trained and talented artists; and attract new and young audiences who will enjoy the popular and timeless works of Gilbert & Sullivan.
Please show your support and donate as a patron or contact us to become a volunteer.
Location
Young Vic performances are on the campus of Gilman School, 5407 Roland Avenue in Baltimore, Maryland.
Limited Mobility
There are two main interior aisles in the auditorium with no access against the left and right walls, so if you need assistance, please see an usher. Even better, please call the box office so we can help you choose the most appropriate seating location.
Wheelchair Users
Although the theatre is accessible, there are a limited number of wheelchair spots available for each performance. Some partially handicapped patrons may be more comfortable sitting in a seat in the last two or three rows. Sight lines and acoustics are very good throughout the auditorium. Please call the box office so we can help you choose an appropriate seating location.
Air Conditioning
The auditorium is air conditioned and while we try to ensure that everyone is comfortable, the circulation of air can make some areas feel colder, so we suggest patrons consider bringing a sweater or jacket to the performance.
Family Night
Young Vic performances are great fun for the whole family. On Family Night, tickets are available at a reduced price from the box office. Please note that group rates are not available for this performance.
Surtitles
All performances are enhanced with surtitles of the lyrics projected above the auditorium stage.
