* ThrowItIn: When Yum-Yum reassures Nanki-Poo that she does not love Ko-Ko, his reply as originally written was simply "Rapture!" In an rehearsal Durward Lely, the actor playing Nanki-Poo, delivered the word "Rapture!" too strongly for Gilbert's liking, prompting Gilbert to tell him, "Modified rapture" (meaning "tone it down a bit"). Lely responded, "Modified rapture!" and Gilbert liked it and added "modified" to the script.

* ActuallyPrettyFunny: The 1907 revival was cancelled for six weeks due to a state visit by Prince Fushimi Sadanaru. It backfired spectacularly when the prince expressed a desire to see the show. A command performance was put together and both the prince and his entourage found it hilarious.

** Rutland Barrington, the original Pooh-Bah, liked to throw ad-libs into performances. Gilbert usually crossly told him not to do it again, but occasionally he liked one of Barrington's additions and added it to the official script. An example is when the Mikado tells Ko-Ko, Pitti-Sing and Pooh-Bah that their executions will take place after luncheon, and Pooh-Bah replies, "I don't want any lunch."

** When Ko-Ko protests that he doesn't see how a man can cut off his own head, Pish-Tush replies that if he could succeed in cutting it half off, that would at least be something. During seppuku, ritual suicide, a samurai would have a second ready to deliver the killing blow while he disembowelled himself, striking his neck with a sword but crucially ''not'' fully cutting his head off.
