Pirates of Penzance
Gielgud Theatre
Shaftesbury Avenue
London
W1D 6AR
Orphaned pirates, flat footed policemen and a bevy of blushing maidens (the pretty recipe daughters of Major General Stanley) are all the ingredients for a fabulous recipe of Gilbert & Sullivan at their very best. Elengantly recreating the original period settings and costumes with exquisite detail, this acclaimed production sparkles with wit. Sullivan's ever popular and memorable score contains some of his most beautiful writing as Gilbert, in his most topsy turvy of all plots, leads us through the swashbuckling world of young Frederic, the Pirate apprentice, who was born on February 29th in a leap year and therefore won't be 21 amd come of age until he is 84!.
