Pirates of Penzance
ARGH!! The Pirate King is back again for our eleventh season! 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’ll be performing on ships, at a chocolate factory, at an amphitheatre, and at pubs!
As 2024 is a leap year, we will be celebrating Frederic's birthday with a special sing-a-long version at Adelaide Botanic Garden! AND we will be introducing an expanded cast this year alongside all your favourites on the 15th and 17th of March. ARGH!!
Book early to avoid disappointment!
