Gilbert and Sullivan work (8)

I believe the answer is:

iolanthe

(Other definitions for iolanthe that I've seen before include "G&S piece" , "show" , "Staged work" , "Gilbert and Sullivan opera" , "G & S' alternative for "The Peer and the Peri"" .)

I've seen this clue in the LA Times and The Independent.
