The Gentlemen of Titipu
Lady Katisha (voice)
The Emperor of Japan is scheduled to visit the small fishing village of Titipu for the annual cherry blossom festival. Unfortunately, during the ceremony the town tailor, Koko, winks at the pretty Kataisha, who is to be the wife of the Emperor's son Nanki Poo. Koko is promptly arrested and thrown in a dark, dank dungeon and sentenced to death for disrespecting the Emperor. Things look bleak for Koko until Nanki Poo falls in love with the lovely Yum Yum, and Koko gets caught up in a scheme to deceive the Emperor.

Singer-comedienne Anna Russell sinks her chops into some of the opera world's tastiest sacred cows in this farewell concert filmed live in 1984 inside Baltimore's Museum of Art. Highlights include Russell's instructions on "How to Become a Singer"; her recollections of "Wind Instruments I Have Known"; her unique interpretation of Richard Wagner's "Ring" cycle; and her performance of "Jolly Old Sigmund Freud."
Anna Russell: Crown Princess of Musical Parody
herself
When London-born performer Anna Russell decided to combine her well-oiled comedic timing with her classical training as a lyric soprano, she quickly earned the moniker "Crown Princess of Musical Parody." This collection of Russell's television appearances from 1964, 1976 and 1977 includes interviews, renditions of classical and rock 'n' roll songs and sidesplitting routines on the bagpipe and French horn.
