PYRATES! - The Musical

PYRATES! is a musical like no other. A storm of passion, sword fights, and dangerous desire on the high seas. Cast out of England, John Husk is hurled into a world of violence when his ship is torn apart by pirates. Faced with death, he chooses life under the black flag, drawn to the fierce Barbary pirate Badas. Will steel cut deeper than loyalty? Meanwhile, when the Captain’s wife, Eliza Power, discovers John and Badas’ love, she seizes her chance for freedom. With mutiny in the air and blades flashing, hearts and throats are on the line. Will love survive, or will fate carve its own brutal ending? Inspired by the true(ish) story of John Husk, who fought alongside Blackbeard. Can you tell which one of your performers tonight is John Husk's direct descendent?

Bring your sense of adventure (and maybe a touch of eyeliner). Pyrates! invites you to rethink what a pirate really looks like.
