Presented by Gilbert & Sullivan Opera Sydney
The plot of this swashbuckling Gilbert & Sullivan comic sensation opens on an idyllic beach in Cornwall, England – where Frederic, a strapping, handsome, not overly-intelligent pirate is about to turn 21. Having been inadvertently apprenticed to a pirate at the tender age of eight because his governess, Ruth, was hard of hearing, Frederic has come of age and is ready to discover life. Having been at sea for so long, our hero can’t remember what a young woman looks like. Suddenly, along comes a bevy of beautiful maidens out for a picnic and a paddle. Crisis for Fred! By chance, these girls’ foster-father is a Major-General who missed his vocation as a rapper but is now making up for lost time. So, what does he do to save the day? You won’t believe what comes next.
If you love confusion, contradiction, con trickery, constabulary,and consummate melodies, then The Pirates of Penzance will explain who put the ‘corn’ in ‘Cornwall’ – and send you out of the theatre on a consupercalifragilisticexpialidocious high!
With a cast of 35 singers, the performances at Bundanoon will be accompanied by the G&S Opera Sydney Palm Court Orchestra.
