 Overview/Synopsis:
Set on the rocky coast of Cornwall, England, The Pirates of Penzance JR. begins with a rowdy group of pirates celebrating the 21st birthday of one of their own, Frederic. Finally having served the full length of his required time with the pirates, he decides to strike off on his own and become an upstanding citizen – which may even mean bringing the pirates to justice. Thus turns out to be a tricky prospect indeed, especially when Frederic's freedom is called into question!
The Pirates Of Penzance JR. is a light, comic introduction to the work of Gilbert and Sullivan, featuring opportunities for singing as an ensemble or in small groups, with vocal parts written in unison or simple two-part harmony. The cast is quite flexible as one can add pirates and daughters as needed to make sure as many aspiring actors can get a taste of the footlights.
