For its current offering, "Princess Ida," the guest is Frank Gorshin, as King Gama.

Beginning on Jan. 6 the company will present 10 performances of "Princess Ida," with Frank Gorshin as the cantankerous King Gama.

In "Princess Ida," John Rubinstein's King Gama promised much.

In 1976, he performed the role of King Gama in Princess Ida for the Dunedin Gilbert and Sullivan Company's 25th anniversary production.
