A sextet of stars and pianist of The New York Gilbert & Sullivan Players perform The Pirates of Penzance in one act. Set sail with this classic comedy that boasts one of the most famous patter songs in musical theatre history. On the coast of Cornwall, a band of tenderhearted pirates celebrates the coming of age of Frederic, who was mistakenly apprenticed to the pirates until his 21st birthday. Now, Frederic has vowed to devote his life to the extermination of piracy - until a ludicrous leap year snag threatens to keep him apprenticed to the pirates for life!
After intermission, the performers return in black tie and gowns to entertain the audience with many selections from the full repertoire of Gilbert & Sullivan’s comic operas - including their signature section - impromptu audience requests!
Tickets on sale August 4!
$40 Adults, $35 Military/Seniors/USCA Staff, $5 Students
