I sang a fair bit of G&S in AmDrams at school and college, and still love it! I think my addicton started when I was about 14 and has remained incurable.

I never cared much for The Zoo — it seemed to suffer from a lack of wit. If we're going for other Sullivan operettas, I vastly prefer Cox and Box…
I haven't really heard Box and Cox. As to the Zoo each to his or her own. I think it is great. That is one of the good thikng about G&S they wrote so much there is something for everyone.
