Gilbert and Sullivan were a duo consisting of librettist W. S. Gilbert (1836-1911) and composer Arthur Sullivan (1842-1900). They were renowned for their comic operas. Among the most famous are H.M.S. Pinafore, The Pirates of Penzance, and The Mikado.
One of the staple references of The Simpsons is that Sideshow Bob is a huge fan of Gilbert and Sullivan. [1] In the Simpsons universe, Gilbert and Sullivan and their works have been referred to several times.
