Why see The Pirates Of Penzance?
Lets take a jolly journey with the Pirates of Penzance, Gilbert and Sullivan's beloved operatic comedy. Since its debut in 1879, the show has played many times, the world over, igniting imaginations and introducing audiences to the magic of the talented duo to this day.
Poor Frederich has been the recipient of a horrible mistake, indentured to the gentlemanly, (but not very good) Pirates of Penzance until his 21st birthday. But the the bad luck doesn't stop there; turns out his birthday falls on February 29, meaning he'll have to wait another 83 years! When he meets Mabel, his sentence seems even longer. A bitter-sweet love story set against the backdrop of hilarious Pirates, with the classic score including 'Major-General's song'.
