Pirates of Penzance (Sacramento Performances)

Theater Light Opera Theatre of Sacramento celebrates its 31st season with Gilbert & Sullivan’s swashbuckling musical comedy The Pirates of Penzance. Goofy, irreverent, and as entertaining today as it was when it first opened in 1879, Gilbert & Sullivan's The Pirates Of Penzance follows the story of an orphan boy who was mistakenly apprenticed to a pirate instead of a pilot. A hilarious farce featuring soft-hearted pirates, bumbling policemen, impressionable maidens, an eccentric Major General, and pouring over with unforgettable melodies and tongue-twisting songs such as I Am the Very Model of a Modern Major General and Poor Wandering One, Pirates is one of the most popular operettas ever written.

Theater Light Opera Theatre of Sacramento celebrates its 31st season with Gilbert & Sullivan’s swashbuckling musical comedy The Pirates of Penzance. Goofy, irreverent, and as entertaining today as it was when it first opened in 1879, Gilbert & Sullivan's The Pirates Of Penzance follows the story of an orphan boy who was mistakenly apprenticed to a pirate instead of a pilot. A hilarious farce featuring soft-hearted pirates, bumbling policemen, impressionable maidens, an eccentric Major General, and pouring over with unforgettable melodies and tongue-twisting songs such as I Am the Very Model of a Modern Major General and Poor Wandering One, Pirates is one of the most popular operettas ever written.
