The Pirates of Penzance

Synopsis of The Pirates of Penzance

Gilbert and Sullivan's beloved comic operetta is captured live during 1994 performance at the Lyric Theater, Queensland Performing Arts Center in Australia in this release that features Jon English in the role of the Pirate King, and Simon Gallagher as the 19th Century aristocrat whose fate takes a curious turn when his nursemaid secures him an apprenticeship as a pirate instead of a pilot. With such famous tunes as "I am a Pirate King" and "(I am the Very Model of) A Modern Major General", The Pirates of Penzance will have viewers lagging hardily as they sing along with this delightfully rollicking tale. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi
