The Pirates of Penzance is a wonderfully witty satire of cherished institutions and attitudes. Bumbling police, a pompous military and slavish devotion to duty are all skewered with rapier wit by Gilbert and Sullivan.
VO brings together two legendary performers – Christopher Gaze and Judith Forst – in this uproarious, absurd, and hugely pleasing comic opera.
Dates are December 1, 2, 4, 6, 8 and 9 at 7:30 pm at the Queen Elizabeth Theatre.
