Gilbert & Sullivan’s delightfully chaotic comic opera brimming with lovesick pirates, bumbling officers of the law, wild escapades, and wonderfully absurd twists of logic.

At its heart is Frederic, a young man serving as a pirate’s apprentice, who finds himself completely smitten with Mabel, daughter of the pompous Major-General Stanley. He eagerly awaits the end of his apprenticeship on his 21st birthday — only to discover a rather unfortunate complication: having been born on February 29th, he technically has far fewer birthdays to his name than his age would suggest, leaving him bound to his duties far longer than expected. Torn between his overwhelming love for Mabel and his rigid sense of obligation, Frederic must somehow navigate his way toward a happy ending.

A timeless classic, The Pirates of Penzance takes audiences on a wonderfully entertaining ride full of charm, humor, and romantic longing.
