ARRGH!! The Pirates are celebrating 10 years!

Come and find out why we are one of the longest-running shows in Adelaide Fringe history! 

The Pirate King is back for this hilarious adaptation of Gilbert and Sullivan's classic operetta is staged in one hour, with an amazing local cast of only eight featuring some of South Australia's best local performers with live piano accompaniment!

This year we are mixing up our locations! You can find us at the Maritime Museum, Botanic Garden, Barossa Chocolate Factory and The Jade! Lots of chances to see us strut our piratical stuff but book early as we sell out quickly!

Come celebrate our 10th year with us - and come orphan! 

Keep an eye out on Facebook/Instagram for your chance to sing with us!
