H.M.S. Pinafore

The rulers of the Queen's Navee are back for a 2nd year!

H.M.S. Pinafore; or, The Lass That Loved a Sailor, is a comic opera in two acts (we perform it in one!), with music by Arthur Sullivan and a libretto by W. S. Gilbert. Directed by Andy Turner, a small and wonderful cast of Adelaide performers will be bringing Pinafore to life, maximising all the silliness in our usual way!

Join us for this immersive experience!
